If memory serves, this and associated photos were taken in central France (Dijon). This unit operated in the Med from there and Istres, so the location fits.

David and ChristianK, thanks for your insights. IMHO, the whole set of photos might well have been taken on the same Fl.Pl. which is clearly in Germany, given what we can see from the buildings. Those utterly thrashed 109's do ring a bell, possibly Fürth, but I of course stand corrected.

It would be great to nail down the location for this He 111 Z and those other planes.

Cheers
Marc
