Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
The P.1101. What a find. In my early years of posting, I had come across only one other photo: A P.1101 in a building of some kind and in an undamaged condition. Daylight through a window illuminated the aircraft.

ETIS=European Theatre Intelligence School?
On the back of the photo of the 262 parked next to the P1101, does it say 20th Feb -46? It is a bit unclear? |

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
Photographed at Messerschmitt "Oberbayerische Forschungsanstalt" clandestine development department at Oberammergau. Taken in April 1945 when late snowfalls occurred. Just watch the Bad Wörishofen photographs.
Very interesting photograph - prototype seems to be undamaged and only shoved outside the hangar to crete space for whatsoever. Website about Messerschmitt production site and research facility http://www.herbert-thiess.de/Laber/Index.html Now occupied by https://www.natoschool.nato.int/ Regards RolandF |

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
Thank you Snautzer and RolandF. I do not see ETIS under the military abbreviations I know. The photo mentions a theatre. In some cases, intelligence documents would capitalize all the letters for a town or other key location.

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
Hi Ed,
http://www.natoschool.nato.int/Organ...tory/1933-1953 The above source states "... the prototype P.1101 and a Me-109 [sic] were found in Building 615 now housing the Manfred Woerner Lecture Hall...". I think what the GI meant by "theater" was a lecture hall. best regards, Jim Geens |
