Re: eBAy: Captured german planes

Yes,thanks. Gardermoen is todays "Oslo Airport". Fortunately I have already got list of Ju 188 and 88s surrendered there, some with odd (read= wrong) numbers, where 5xxx Fuselage numbers from Ju 188 A-3 are said Ju 88 A-17. Codes to serials are very slowly coming to light. Unfortunately nothing can be gleaned from these.

#647 xx+Jx apears rare Ju 88 C-2/4 (VDM props) but shows trace of radar nose (or ex nose cap from C-6 Li one)
and possibly Armour Windsheld from C-6 too.

Some time ago I wrote of no Ju 88 C-6 prototype. I failed notice that one Ju 88 C-4 was tested with Jumo 211 J (for C-6 / Night Fighter) 1941
but if prototype V number was assigned, it may have been the Ju 88 V35 W.Nr. 0880395 PL+TM , that also later got Jumo 213 A-1 engines...
