Re: Unknown label from a Luftwaffe crash site
Look for some cast pieces of alloy (not engine) and look for the marking:
R8- If that is followed by a number, this will be the aircraft type; eg 87, 88, 109, 110.....etc etc etc. If you find any numbers on egine casting, that might help. EG; 601, 605, 211 etc etc. |

We also find a part of engine with number: 601.329.002 C4 EZ2 ![]() Some idea? We also find a part with a logo and print 3.35. Some idea about logo? ![]() In the crash we not find any bullets, find some fragment of camera film and some part of wood painted of green colour. Some idea about airplane???? |

Re: Unknown label from a Luftwaffe crash site
the FL204946 is machinegewehr-lafette for MG 131
so i think it will be a plane with heavy machineguns coz 131 is not a small one hope this will help? cheers phil |
