Heinkel 111P W.Nr 2602 KG54
Evening, could anybody confirm the Werknummer 2602 for He111P from KG54 1939-40, or perhaps have a record of loss for this particular a/c?
Any help would be appreciated. Best regs, Steve.

Hi, nobody got anything regarding loss details for this Heinkel?
Perhaps production detail, or Stkz for this series. Any help really appreciated. Steve.

Re: Heinkel 111P W.Nr 2602 KG54
Steve,
Our EOE WG has been looking at this one, in the salvage yard at Gent, Belgium, but it isn't among our confirmed SN for any KG54 loss during the WC, although we've worked that unit hard with a lot of success. If you find out anything, we'd also like to know about it. Since the He111 obviously came down intact there are probably photos of it out there, but we just can't connect that W.Nr. with anything in our DB so far. Just wanted you to know that we weren't ignoring your request. Regards,
|

Hi Larry, great to hear from you and i appreciate the work your doing on the EOE WG.
Yes this Heinkel is really proving hard to identify, im quite sure its demise was probably during the Western Campaign may - june 1940 but cannot match any recorded incident, has you rightly say. If i find anything i will of course let you know! Kindest regs, Steve.

Steve/Larry...
While checking your post, I did a quick search through my collection of pics... I hope I'm not raising your hopes, but I found this, and there seems to be a W.Nr 2602 on the dismantled control surface under the fin/rudder assembly. Is this the machine you're looking for? It was logged recently on 14 June as part of Peter Evans' e-bay listings, over on LEMB. Hope this may be of help. Kind regards Paul Last edited by obdl3945; 9th April 2012 at 05:26.

Hi Paul, this is the very photo ive based my querie on.
Would really like to nail this one, it would appear from Larry that the photo may have been taken in a salvage yard at Ghent, Belgium. If anybody else could offer any further clues please feel free. Thanks for looking Paul it is appreciated. Kindest regs, Steve.
