Hello Martin,

That's all the info I have on that particular airplane. Loss info from Quartermaster's records rarely mention the name of the pilot, this happened mainly if he was KIA.

0385 started life on the production line as 0388, and as a B-1, due to a production welding problem it was pulled off the line, modified and redesignated as 0385, it also was uniquely a transitional machine that was more B-1 than B-2.

I am wondering how did you manage to get so precise details on your artefact?

By the way, according to my research - published in the book Henschel Hs 129 In Detail, Midland (UK), 2006 - the production block 0201-0450 was assigned to the B-2 sub-type.
