Re: Chinese Heinkel 50 (66) Werke Nummers etc. question
Hej!
Tack ska du ha, Lennart. Thanks!
The answer is just what I feared. It means there are a dozen airframes or so more to be "found" somewhere.
It just occurred to me that the Chinese version of He 50 was to have Jupiter VI engine. Also some of the Danish Fokker CVs were Jupiter-engined. Both types were used by the Estonian-manned NSGr 11.
It makes me more and more convinced that it is not a coincidence. Estonian Air Force had had Bristol Bulldog II, which was also Jupiter VI engined. Former EstAF depot was used throughout the war for overhaul place for Ju 88s etc. and there were lots of Estonians working there. Perhaps Luftwaffe made use of the Estonian Jupiter engine know-how and possibly tooling too?
MvH,
Kari
