Re: List of DB 605A engine construction numbers?
My friend Pentti Manninen is still unable to log in to this site and has therefore asked me to forward the following:
"Regarding the DB 605 AS Baureiche 0 there is one interesting original documentation in the Finnish Air Force Museum archive collection. With the FinnAF served two DB 605 AS engines WNr 007 0 7759 and the WNr 708251. The last mentioned was lost as German property and transferred to the Soviet Union, but WNr 007 0 7759 served FinnAF also post war time. The WNr 007 0 7759 was assebled by Genshagen and installed into Bf 109 G-6AS WNr 163974 (FinnAF MT-463). This DB 605 AS was marked with overhaul time 100/2 on date 25.4.1944. The Lebenslaufakte WNr writings states also the following different styles: WNr 845 (00707759) and 00707759 (845), DB 605 AS Baureiche 0. This DB 605 AS WNr 007 0 7759 Lebenslaufakte survives still with some dozens of plain DB 605 A-1 original documents. Some rarities are included as KWM 006 FIAT RA 1050 RC.58I Tifone: 540 48420 708 48588 874 48754 888 48768 and two more Tifone WNr of which WNr I do not have readily available.
