Hi Dan, yes, you are right. The small hill with the building on top of it is a very good reference. There is also a church at the bottom of that hill that can be seen in some photos.
The location of 113371 are is still a mistery for me. 113371 was found in front of a big (half burnt) building

Better yet, the power line is still marked on the map, although surely it can't still be overhead, can it?

Nick, would it be possible to share the map and the locations of the Ju 87 and Fw 190s? It is very interesting that the power line is still marked on the map. That would help a lot.
Behind WkNr. 111712 (before it was apparently moved to the "Me 262 collection point" in the South West) I can see two Ju 87 (JV44, Forsyth, P.300). The power lines are visible in the background. 111712 is pointing towards East and is South of today's landing strip. Looking towards North there is a building just behind 111712.

Hi Chris, thanks a lot for the information about where one might be able to find aerial photos! That would be great if you could check if there is anything about Innsbruck when you are at the US National Archives!
Kind regards
Roger
