Steve, do not let this old site bring you down. Generally speaking (not commenting on this case). Lots and lots of errors. Even the errors are sometimes wrong (plus many references are wrongly attributed). Many of these Stkz. come from logbooks, and as many know, they are known for contain writing errors besides bad hand-writing (sutterlin etc. etc.) and bad copying or copys of copys make matters worse. Even bad photos are qouted. Yes, Now I have said this.

Many many thanks, Steve, for the location; this issue was nagging me as I had already seen the FW 190, without knowing where....

Sincerely
Marc

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes

Ju 88 G-6 W.Nr. 621 892
http://www.ww2online.org/image/ameri...1944-or-1945-1

Fw 190 F-8 W.Nr. 588 318 "Weisse 40"
http://www.ww2online.org/image/ameri...e-1944-or-1945

Both planes are in the same location, given the window pattern of the hangar in the background. Any idea about the location ?

Cheers
Marc
