Pictures of FW 190-A6, Werksnummer 550 208, Ofw. Josef / Joseph "Jupp" Bigge

[Wast1991]

Hello everyone,

I am looking for pictures of Ofw. Bigge´s FW 190 A6, Werksnummer 550 208. As far as I know, there are a few pictures of his plane. I am most interested in this because a relative of mine flew the same Werksnummer.

I would be most grateful to receive those pictures.

Thank you very much in advance!

Best regards

Sebastian

There are four photos of WNr.550208 "schwarze 2" on page 218 in Nauroth's JG 2 photo history (published by Motor Verlag, Stuttgart in 1999, and - with English captions - by Schiffer, Atglen, Pennsylvania, U.S.A., 2004); two 'before' when the aircraft is intact, and two after it struck a horse-drawn wagon and overturned, tearing-off the port wing.

Hello G.R.Morrison,

thank you for your fast reply. I sent you a PM. Does anybody know more about that plane? If my German reports are correct, the crash must have been repaired but I can´t proof that. My reports say, that the plane was used in Latvia in August 1944 (long after the crash).

Any information would help.

Thank you!

Best regards

Hello,

does anyone own the JG 2 book and is able to send me scans of the pictures? This would be very kind.

Best regards

Sebastian
