Joachim Helbig.Ju 88

Hi Guys.
I have a friend that wants to do a model used by the above pilot.
I will quote his request.
Can you guys help please.
To cut a long story short, what I am looking for are ANY of the following details:


  • Pics of his aircraft (he flew mainly with LG 1 and all his aircraft were apparently all coded L1 + AM);
  • What type of Ju 88 he was flying, where (main theatres of operation - Battle anf Britain and the Mediterranean and in support of Rommel in Africa (the latter would be of real interest)) and when;
  • Type of camoufllage.
I have gone through all of the books I have here, but my coverage of the German bomber arm is rather poor - a matter of poor investment in that area!.

For your info, Helbig was probably the leading Ju 88 pilot as you can see from the extract ex Wikipedia on him, as follows (there is much more there, but no details of his aircraft that a modeller needs):



Thx a mil
Stefaan
