Thanks Chris!

The picture prior to Norway was new to me but very interesting.
Thanks you for showing!

Re: KGr100 He 111H down in a snowstorm on lake in Norway

Hi Chris, thanks for your reply with regards Hptm. Artur von Casimir's flugbuch.

I dont know whether you saw a recent E-bay collection offered for sale, purportedly being claimed to have been an a/c used by Von Casimir.
This was Heinkel 111 6N+CA with possibly the last two digits of the W.Nr shown on the nose as ##52.
Through the use of his flugbuch i wondered whether it might have been possible to confirm this a/c as his?

Best regs,
Steve.

John

His logbook shows flights up to 25 May 40 when they were flying from Trondheim.

Steve

If the photo shows the port side with him out the top, I have this photo. According to his Flugbuch, on ops he flew AA, DH, BA, NH, GH, FK, MH & CA (25 May 40 for the last one). No Wk Nrs listed and according to him he was in BA when shot down

Thanks!
You don`t have names on his crew when he belly landed on Jonsvatnet 20.04.1940?
Looking at the other pictures from the JU88 and U4 with the bloody seat there have must been casualities at Jonsvatnet that time.

There is a photo of Casimir standing with a colleague in front of 6N+BA so thanks Chris for confirming that he flew this also.

Hi ChrisS, would it be possible to scan your picture of Hptm Von Casimir with Heinkel 111H 6N+BA.
Im trying to gather as much info as i can on KGr100 aircraft, and i dont think i have a copy of that particular a/c.

Kindest regs,
Steve.
