Query re: a Fliegerstaffel des Führers Fw 200

[richdlc]

Hi guys

I have photos of a Fliegerstaffel des Führers Fw 200 with possible markings KF+IX delivering Hitler to see troops and also taking off again with Hitler visible in the window (Video exists of a machine with a very similar looking code delivering Hitler to see Mannerheim on 4 June 1942). My photo comes from an album annotated ‘Poltava, Ukraine’ (which I believe Hitler visited in December 1941) but also shows Mussolini as well as Hitler. Is the location not therefore Uman in Ukraine, which had been captured earlier in the month, where the dictators visited Italian troops?

If AH and BM only made this trip in a Fw 200 once, then the date and location should be easy to work out, but I am trying to ascertain the exact code of the aircraft used on this occasion as well.

Is there a list of all Fw 200 aircraft used by the F.d.F.?

Thank you!
