Re: eBay: German intrest

The seller's caption to this SM.95 is surely misleading.
If the digit 6 is anything to go by, this is most likely nc 41006 which did not make its first flight until 1946 and cannot be classified as captured. As far as I know nc 41006 was built and civil registered in Italy only, post war.

Another IWM photo by the same seller, nc 41003 here

is more correctly said to be captured, even if I believe its transport and evaluation was being done with the acceptance of the, by now new and Allied, Italian Government.

Cheers
Stig
