Re: GERMAN PROPELLER, WHAT PLANE?

That came out of Freeman Field in 2012.

It used to be mine,

The person who I gave it to in Germany thought it was Fw190 D9.

I never cleaned it, or looked at it in person...but now that I see the hand-written number on it, I can tell you it is from a He111.

Other props found at Freeman all had hand-painted numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.

Yours has a hand-painted "6" (this was done in the USA in 1944/1945), which leads me to believe this is blade #6...in which case, it would be from a 2-engine bomber (aka He111).
