Re: a JU88 support made by VDM

R8-88 1xx part is part from fuselage, R probably denoting it was die-cast in mold, 133 canopy, here frame support or fastener of some sort? I have part 8-88.133-0962 in my hands, its made out of thick flat aluminum plate, then cut out making canopy "window", then riveted to the tube frame and "rollover bar" at rear of front canopy. This part was on left side, immidiately aft of the pilot sliding window. Yes, definately part number and "stoff" (material, metal).
