Re: Ju88S-1 - KG66

Hi AbbevilleBoy,

Thanks for you vote of confidence in my project! As Nick said, I'm still working on it, but the mean reason for that is that so much new and exciting material is still pouring in faster than I can process it ..

As the others have been so helpful, the only things that I can add to this loss is that Tittel at the time of the crash was helping to introduce the EGON system in I./KG66. Tittel also told me that he was shot down by 2 P-47s. So far I have not been able to check this statement against Allied victory claims.

If there are any pictures of the BMW801 engines in that field, I would be very grateful if you could send me some. So far I have very few pictures of I./KG66 wreck parts or crash sites. You can send me a PM if you like.

Best regards,

Marcel
