Re: Ju 88 - B3+IM

Thats most likely not 140396. By that time that was produced (October 1942) the top-of-fin aerodynamic balance (horn) was standard. This plane does not seem to have it (i.e. is early production, made in summer/autum 1941) and has straight fin tip. Period on this photo then seems spring 1942 (faded winter camou.) and damaged about 20% - 40% (incl. combat damage).
