Re: Where can we see the Wnr. on a JU88 ?

Nope, thats the Gondola bulkhead plate (Plywood bulkhead). I read same on USAAF D-1/trop and it was OPEL made. This one is Henschel made Gondola.

One type of main plate, this came from Bd5 (Bernburg). Others had more fields but still very ease to copy. Norwegian restorers did so.

But there are factors to distingush betweewn fake and originals. Have pictures of over 200 different examples.



Found on east front (Tim) area, published on Reibert forum (unknown photographer).
