Re: eBAy: Captured german planes

As David stated, the war was over, the need to collect every scrap of information had gone as they saw it. This is very evident in the various types of captured aircraft reports one sees. In the earlier stages of the war, full details were recorded, however, with the end of the war, often all that was recorded of finds on airfields were the numbers of a type, i.e. 25 x Bf 109. They weren't working with our later needs in mind!
