Ju 52 with special center engine

Hi,

recently, the following photo appeared on Ebay (may be that it was already posted earlier in this forum, but I can't find it):

Attachment 20439

It shows a Ju 52 with an unusual center engine installation. On the underside of the l/h wing a (presumably British) cockade is faintly visible.

On another forum, the idea was raised that this was an ex-Rechlin engine-test aircraft (for DB 601s und DB 605s), which was captured by the British at Schleswig.

Are there any British documents about this aircraft?


Gerhard
