Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
Quote:
Wow, Thanks Michiel, Looks like it's a French machine (FFI, Group Dor, then GB 1/31 "Aunis") used against the Royan pockect (?). I'm not that sure though. Look under the wing, we can see the French cockade. Regards, Franck. Correction: He177 A-7 WNr.550256, used by Group Dor, effectively but transferred to USAF. On 28 November 1944 Col. Watson flew it. Ferried to Villacoublay by Col. Coster. Landed at Orly because of mechanical problems. Took off on 1 March 1945 (!) after repairs but took fire; destroyed.
