Re: Ju88 crash OLt Gert Blume, near Isjum 1942
You need correct them others ;-)
All this is old stuff. Only Medcalf turned down an offer to get it correct. Getting Baltabol does not solve the problem. I wonder if Medcalf really had any correct. He usually was (is) one or two months off for true Production dates (them dates one sees stamped on dataplates) because of use of delivery figures (and only some of them), and deliveries are not same as "production", it usually took 4 to 6 weeks to transport parts, assemble and test, and then deliver... And these delivery figures have all the clergical and categorical errors possible... and planes were not delivered in W.Nr. order (only roughly), some were delayed. I suspect some even exchanging W.Nr´s before delivery (because often there were hidden construction or line numbers behind these), it appears so because plates found suggest so, and some few failed delivery! Ok. Here goes... "new decicion W.Nr.´s by JFM in Oct 1939" 088 0xxx JFM (A-1, A-5, A-6 etc. and conversions (incl. C-1, C-2, C-3, C-4, C-5, C-7, D-2 but Ju 88 B V series was separate.) 088 1xxx JFM (A-4 and D-1, D-5) 088 2xxx Arado (A-1, A-5, A-6, A-4) 088 3xxx Henschel (A-1, A-5, A-6, A-4) 088 4xxx Nord Deutcher Dornier (A-1, A-5, A-4) 088 5xxx ATG (A-1, A-5, A-4) 088 6xxx Heinkel (A-1, A-5, A-4) 088 7xxx Dornier Sud (A-1 and A-5 only) - and no Ju 88 B series here, despite Medcalf list them such in his book. 088 8xxx Siebel (A-1, A-5, A-4) Last edited by edNorth; 7th February 2015 at 14:44. |
