He 59 D-AZEX
Does anyone have any information on this aircraft, such as unit, WNr, sub-type (I'm assuming an N), fate and Skz?
Thanks in advance Adam |

Re: He 59 D-AZEX
Unfortunately, D-AZEX is one of the few He 59's were I do not have a tie up to the Werkenummer. It was a fully He59N conversion for ASR duties made by Walther Bachmann, Ribnitz. I have noted the aircraft for the first time on 17.04.40 in List with Seenotflugkdo.2. On 31.05.40 it was detached to Stavanger, Norway with return to List on 23.06.40. Then detached to Amsterdam-Schellingwoude from 18.07.40 to 05.08.40 when it returned to Norderney for float repairs. Returned to Amsterdam the following day. Last noted on List on 31.08.40 as D-AZEX. Most likely, this aircraft received new Stammkennzeichen shortly after this date, but as I do not have the W.Nr. tie up, its subsequent history can not traced by me. Can anyone help here ??

As always, thanks Seaplanes
Don't know if you've seen this picture of the aircraft. |
