Re: Three Mistel pictures

Hi...

Sorry to throw a spanner in the works, but I think this is a G-10, not an 'H'.

According to the Squadron/Signal publications on the Ju88, Vols 1 and 2, the H-1 was a development of the D-1 reconnaissance version, with beetle-eye glazed nose and early, rounded rudder. The G-10 was a stretch-limo version of the G-6 nightfighter, with solid nosecap and squared-off fin/straight rudder. So, this second photo would most likely have been an intended Mistel 3C (or S3C trainer) and not an 'H'.

Ah, I see Simon has beaten me to it with his answer...

Regards...
