Jan Mayen
Two German planes crashed there during WWII. One was well ID as
a Focke Wulf 200C4 Condor serial#0104 SQ F8 +AB of staff 1KG40. The second was found much later by a British geological team on the SW end of the island. My question what kind of plane was it, was it ID, how many lost and when did it go missing?

Hi Carl!
Hope that I can be of help here. Check out www.warcovers.dk, has to do with German Meteorological Units during WWII. According this website, Ju 88D-1, 1B+BH, Wekusta 5, Pilot Oberleutnant Werner Kohler, crashed on Jan Mayern Island on 15.7.42. Entire crew killed. Picture of the aircraft remains, in color, shown on the website. Best regards, markr

Thank you Markr. I was surpised to note how close that crash had occured to that of the Condor on the 15th of the preceding month. I got a first hand account on the Condor but they never knew of the Ju 88.
