INFORMATION WANTED ON 2x Pilots and their Aircraft
Hi to all,
I am looking for further information on two pilots and their respective aircraft. Specifically I am looking for either artists impressions or even photos of their aircraft if possible. PILOT #-1 Oblt. Hans Marx Fw 190A-8 Werk # 173050. JG-6. Jager Blatt: KIA 7 October, 1944 in aerial combat with P-47s at Wahn, north of Rösrath. Found in 1997, buried in a private cemetary by author Gerhard Aders. He had one B-17 victory in ZG-26 and 3 US fighters in JG-6. One known victory in JG-6, a P-38 NW of Euskirch-Aachen on 12 September, 1944. A P-51 at Nijmegen-Emmerich on 19 September, 1944 I have just purchased one of the propeller blades from his crashed Fw 190A-8 Werk # 173050. JG-6., so I would love any additional information or images of this aircraft if available. PILOT #-2 Uffz. Eduard Daum Bf 109 G6/AS Werk # 412343. 6./JG-27 KIA - Austria 25.07.44 He had 3 kills. I have purchased a large grouping of his personal and aircraft items recovered from the crash site of his Me 109. Here is artwork of his Me 109, although it shows incorrect Werk Nr. So not sure if that was just an artists error or what. I am basically wanting to find artwork for both aircraft from both pilots if you have any of them...? ![]() Many thanks to anyone who can assist. Christian |

Re: INFORMATION WANTED ON 2x Pilots and their Aircraft
Would anyone be able to recommend decent books that show many specific Wr.Nr. aircraft markings / artwork, as per the above example...?
I am hoping to be able to find the artwork / details of the Fw-190 of Hans Marx, and perhaps more detail on Eduard Daum. I was also told by my friend that Daum actually had 5 kills and not 3 at the time he was shot down and killed. ... |

The 7 October 1944 battle was the subject of this thread some years ago: http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/showthread.php?t=16165
