Re: He 219 found in Denmark !!!
Hello Michaël,
Picture 3 shows the two, US profile type tyres in the bay aft the engine compartment whereas picture 4 and 10 not only shows the curved ammonition feeding channels for the MK108 but also the pressure bottle to load/reload these MK108's.
Drawings of the same construction in the Ersatzteilliste He219A-7 convinced me that Kim has really found a He219. The damage is such that the He219 must have made a real impact, not an emergency landing on water (which, I guess, no one risked when you have ejection seats to get you out).
I would like to stress the point that I promised Kim to stay silent about this find but now that it is broadcasted, I can speak out freely with a sense of relieve, because I don't want keep secrets for my Danish friends like you and Jörn.
All the best, Marcel
