Hello Gerhard,
The 2nd TAF Report of the inspection on May 16 lists two He 219 as destroyed which corresponds with reports that almost all aircraft at Blankensee were destroyed by GAF personnel on May 2nd. The above attachment refers to aircraft "handed over", which appears to describe intact aircraft such as at Westerland and in Denmark. As far as I know, there is no photograph of the He 219 at Husum.
I wonder whether the OKL Nord list would include the two destroyed aircraft or whether it refers to two other He 219? No doubt, the Blankensee aircraft meet the "Nordraum" location.
Kind regards
Mathias
