Re: New Ju88 wreck found

Oxby...

I have had MANY Me109 wrecks, wreck parts, and engines in my posession, all in various states. I can tell you 100% that the conditions in Russia are much different than in Wales and other parts of Western Europe. And certainly these parts were not in the condition of the pics you sent.

The Ju88 clearly was not dug...

I was told that is how it was found in the forest. To me, it seems more like a junk pile of parts from a Ju88.

I recently saw the top turret to a Panzer II in someone's back yard in Russia...all with original paint...and many other things just "sitting" in Russia. So who knows...maybe some farmer had all the parts sitting around a decided to finally dump the lot many years ago.

Someone I know has a Ju88 tail section that was removed from a wreck in Norway. It still has 90% original paint...and this is after being outside for decades.

This Ju88 is not recorded anywhere. It is clear from the pics that it is 100% original...so in ID needs to be established...if not a hoax

more info will follow
