Re: Where and why

The factory codes PI+HM look fresh and the inverted Ju 88 on fire inside a damaged building points me to the following SWAG. The Ju 88
in question (W.Nr. 3237?) appears on neither the operational nor the non-operational loss list copies I have. That might lead to the possible
conclusion that this aircraft might have crashed during initial flight testing. It apparently reached final assembly at Henschel in the
September-October 1940 time period.

Best Regards,

Artie Bob
