Re: Ju.52/3m P4+FH, Transportstaffel Fliegerfuhrer Nord (Ost)
Hi Alessandro,
a tough call. The only other photo of a ski-equipped Ju52 that I can immediately trace is page 42 of Manfred Griehl's 'An allen Fronten im Einzatz). This is an all-dark machine without a visible unit emblem and the fuselage code is largely obscured. I'll have a look through the various photos of Ju52s that I have yet to catalogue to see if there are any more.
As for the P4+FH machine - some points to consider:
from what I can see I think it is a g4e conversion (cannot see a starboard side crew door behind the cockpit) from the pre-war batch painted a dark colour overall (see my post on the 'RLM64' hypothesis) but with winter-white on upper surfaces. This makes it a perfect conversion subject for Revell's 1/48 kit (that strictly can only be built from the box as a g4e or early g6e). Also, this aircraft had clearly served with 2/KGrzbV 9 as the 'angel carrying suitcases' emblem is still on the fuselage nose (as per page 51 of Transporter Vol.1).
I'll let you know if I find anything else.
Cheers
GrahamB
