Today I was at a wreckage site near Kjevik, Kristiansand. Many parts were still visible, among them a large part of the wing. I heard from the locals that the plane had crashed in the latter half of the war, and as far as I know this is the only wreckage site from a Junkers Ju 88 near Kjevik.
The plane is supposed to have taken off and heading north, but a few minutes after takeoff the crew supposedly reported on engine failure and tried to get back to the airfield. Unfortunately for them they were not high enough, so they ultimately hit pine trees and rock, killing the entire crew and scattering debris over a large area.
Looking at this page (
http://www.luftwaffe.no/SIG/Losses/tap43.html) I get an entry that I think must be the one:
"Date: 23.09.44 Unit: 1.(F)/22 Location: By Kjevik Incident: Crash Aircraft: Ju 88"
Does anyone have more details? Names of the crew and maybe WNr?
