Any picture of FW200 F8+ DT ?

[gilles collaveri]

All is in title : I am looking for pictures of FW200 "F8+DT" of KG40.

The reason why: I found the remains of FW200 Wnr 0052 (DE+OG) that crashed on 7/6/43 in the south of France.

I initially thought this bird was marked "F8+PT" but it seems that it was actually "F8+DT" :

so, has any body a picture of that bird showing "F8+DT" ?

Thanks in advance and enjoy the holidays.

The pilot of the loss at Toulouse is Oblt. Georg Ulrici, inj.

[gilles collaveri]

thank you Roland

as far as I know, he was killed on 23 December 1944 near Kaisersesch while flying a FW190 A-8 WNr-737367 1./JG 11 white 9,but his body was found only in February 1945;

It seems logical that at the end of the war, the FW200 pilots were switched to FW190.

Any additional info on him will be welcome..

Cheers

In your opinion can this actually be confirmed as F8+DT instead of F8+PT?
Perhaps it used both codes at different times?

I have a logbook entry for one of the crew but it is currently packed away as I have just moved house

I have now found the FB of Ofw Hans Ziegon. It says F8+ & it looks like PT which crashed near Mont de Marsan 1332 hrs 7 Jun 43. He did fly in F8+DT 23 Jan 43 but there is no other mention nor of an F8+PT apart from 7 Jun 43

Thanks Chris for raiding the larder

Looks like we have a case of handwritten FB to rely on.
Not sure what to make of this.
I will note this aircraft down as either F8+PT or +DT until someone can make a 100% certain confirmation. However I must admit that a sloppy D could easily be interpreted as a P....
