Re: Need history of He111P WNr. 2463

Alain,

Since the EOE Project is attempting to document precisely the location and identity of every aircraft, including Luftwaffe, that crashed or crash-landed during the WC, can you tell me what you know about the location and circumstances of the crash of the He111 with the W.Nr. 2407? This could likely be within the scope of our project. We have many photos of He111 losses during that period, and a comprehensive data base of all losses, but we're unlikely to be able to be helpful to you without more than the W.Nr., which generally wasn't recorded by the Luftwaffe records-keepers during that period of the war. Most of our information on that subject comes from either photos of the aircraft or crashes themselves, or the logbooks of the crewmen. Very few W.Nr.s come from surviving contemporary records. Your plaque could also be a component plane, not the master data plate with the a/c W.Nr.

Regards,
