Re: Wreck Ju 88/188 found in Baltic Sea
Jarek,
I've visited the website you referred to and I must say these pictures are of better quality, but it's still difficult to see... Forget what I said about a four bladed prop, because I don't see that in the better pictures... (My mistake) I have made a comparison of a Junkers Ju88A-4 scale drawing and put it as an overlay over the image of the wreck. The wingspan of the wreckage is about 20 metres, so an A-4 type wing will be a closer comparison than the Ju88 that was originally in the picture. (That was a Ju88A-1 aircraft which had shorter wings, by the way.) Let's suppose - this is purely hypothetical: If your wreck is a Junkers Ju88 - you are looking at the wings without the flaps and ailerons - those are missing... My scale drawing is from above, but the wreckage seems a bit tilted 'nose down', or should we say 'engines down' - because there the main weight will be... So that makes it harder to compare the pictures... So if it's a Ju88, a lot of versions (starting from the A-4 wing type) will be possible... A Ju188 had a wingspan that was even (about) 2 metres larger, so the chance that it was such a type is not likely... Just my 50 cents, for what it's worth... Good luck with further investigations..!

Re: Wreck Ju 88/188 found in Baltic Sea
Hi All
Recent studies carried out in January via a robot with a camera resting confirmed the wreck at the bottom of the Baltic that this is Ju 88 The wreck lies at a depth of 25 meters and very good condition. http://wiadomosci.onet.pl/regionalne...wiadomosc.html Best Regards Jarek
