Re: Sütterlin writing

Thanks Pilot05 & Larry for your inputs. Very much appreciated.

The picture itself is of a He 111 of 5./KG 54 dating somewhere between Dec 1939 & Jun 1940.

Radtke also published this picture in his book stating that the plane came back from a mission from France, while this picture seems to suggest a much earlier time frame.

Radtke's caption would imply that this picture is probably taken at Varrelbusch, Gütersloh or another north german airfield.

The caption on this picture places the aircraft in Slovakia.

Looking at the strange shape of the aircraft hangar, does anybody recognises the airfield?

Kind regards,
Rudi.
