Fw 200 " F8+BW"

[schnellmeyer]

Hi , does anybody know what was the fate of Fw 200 F8+BW that was flown by Hauptmann Edmund Daser . This plane was well photographed especially the tail section showing the missions flown and ships sunk .

Wk Nr would make it positive whilst +BW would mean it was with the Ergänzungsgruppe?

Hi Chris , sorry do not have the Wk Nr. for F8+BW . I picked up a nice photo recently showing the unit number and tail markings of the above plane . I know it's possible that there was more than one Fw200 with the unit markings but the tail "tally" must be unique to Daser .

I have a photo of the Fobker crew with F8+BW taken at Angers when they flew Genlt Kessler to Neubrandenburg. Still doesn't tell us more about the fate

No problem Herr Swifte , I will post up my photos as soon as I have scanned them in . Can you please help with my original question ????????

Hello Justin,

Nice photos ! After taking a close look at the plane, it seems to me that it's a C-2 model with a C-3 upper forward defensive turret, a rather special bird !
I do not agree with you about Daser : there were not enough planes at that time so that each crew had it's own.
Another indication : the 30.10.1940 mission was flown by Oblt Burmeister
Hope this helps
Best regards
Marc

Hello Marc ,
glad you liked the photos and thanks for your comments. To be honest I am not sure if the three photos I posted are of the same Condor but the tail markings are very similar . Thanks for pointing out that Oblt. Burmeister flew the mission on 30.10.40 , keep in touch , thanks.
