Help Identifying HE 111p history
Hello, I have been a fairly keen avaiation nut for the past 50 years albeit in civial aviation. two days ago my younger brother who is not avaition inclined callesd me to say he had inherited several Mercedes Benz engine plates ( he presumed they were from a car and he mentioned that one had the date 16.2.39 ( 16 Feb 1939). This morning we exchanged eatser cards and he has given me the plates. There are 3 and the first one to mention is a small rectangular plate NDW. HE111 P with B Nr 536 W Nr 1582. Z Nr 8 - 111.6001 - 30 ancd Abnahme 16.2.39 with a small inverted triagngle with circles at its point with 94 inset followed by BAL and what looks like 297. The back of the plate is in camoflague green.
The second plate States Mercedes Benz FLUGMOTOR Baumuster 601A w.Nr 60638 Baureihe 1 then GA 03/53.
The third plate States Merced benz gerat nR DB 601A and Werk Nr 20281.
Any histroy of this aircraft ( Im assuming all three plates are from the same aircraft) would be very much welcomed particularly the aircrafts final resting home. I live very close to Farnborough in Hampshire ( UK).
Many thanks Bob
