Re: Use of 4-bladed propellors on the Ju88?

It seems that around ten pre-production Junkers Ju 88A-0 (with four bladed propellers) have been passed from Erpr.Kdo 88 to I/KG 30 in september 1939.
Apparently, I/KG 30 was flying with a mixed batch of Ju 88A-0 and Ju88A-1 during the "phoney war" period (late september 1939 / early 1940).
Seems to me that the pics are depicting aircrafts belonging to 1/KG30? ..."umbrella and gun-sight" shield was its insignia.
