Re: Junkers 88 losses in Russia.
Hiya Jim,
Many thanks for your reply,. Having looked at my files again , it would appear ive made a typo with the machine W.Nr 4178, as it does appear as an A-5 and not as an A-4! Im afraid its been a long day today!! Just out of interest i have it as a 1/KG77 a/c 3Z+BH, black individual B outlined in white. With W.Nr 6672 sadly i have i think , the same source has yourself, photographic evidence, and unfortunately no individual a/c letter. Lastly, W.Nr 6689 i have listed as 5K+AS of 8/KG3 seen in Russia sometime in 1942? With the individual a/c letter A in red outlined in white. Again this is from a photo obtained some years ago. Best Regards, Steve. |

Re: Junkers 88 losses in Russia.
My estimate of acceptance dates for both W.Nr. 6672 and 6689 are March or April 1942, so it would appear the flight to Fritzlar, might have been a delivery flight to a Luftpark since it was carrying a Stkz. Thus a Fall 1941 date for 6689 seems unlikely for a photo with operational markings.
