Re: Heinkel He 115 WNr 2398 emerges from the sea near Stavanger

Dear Arnt,

That was why I was questioning whether it was a C1/C2 as there did not seem to be any evidence of the 20mm cannon under the nose though the rear facing guns behind the nacelles is C modification?

Even if salvaged, there should be some fitting for the cannon and ammunition?

I also thought one engine and BOTH floats were salvaged including the struts (supports)?

I am still trying to work out how the cat 'graffitti was covered and how covered. Again, was it on both sides of the He115?

Where was the cat artwork?
