Re: Bernhard Jope KG 40

Hello all,

I have a copy of the van Ishoven book that Brian referred to. I see what he means about the images being unclear. The code could be +?H or?K, but the first letter looks like it may have been repainted and isn't clear from the angle seen. It doesn't look like an "S," and that is not an a/c letter that seems typical for an Fw200 a/c letter in 1940, based upon a review of the 67 images in the EoE DB. I suspect that these photos are from the BA, so we are likely to have to go to that source to find photos of the PK images. Obviously a whole film strip of images exists, and one of the unpublished out-takes may show what we need.

Regards,
