Ju88 Werke Nr. 140099 Data Plate

Jarek/Ed

Many thanks.

Yes - the part was recovered recently from the Blackbrook site and is, I understand, from a Ju88A-4 Werke Nr. 140099 coded 4D + FP. I will post photos of a couple of other bits we are trying to identify.

Can anyone kindly translate and suggest where this will have been located ?

Not seen such instruction placard before (that I remember). BTW the 140099 dates from about June 1942, new-(parts) made in April/May 42, so it might have had more replacement/re-cycled parts fitted, but no crash over 10% recorded.

I have this as NF.XIII MM451 of 96 SQ

Thanks Ed.
Chris Goss has also confirmed this id. via reference to F/O Head's Log Book.

If plane is elevated (Tail on stand) and engine not supported, do not remove the cap.

Thanks for the translation. Does anyone know where this warning would have been located ?

[Yeomans]

This one is obviously a component data plate but again if anyone is able to provide identification/more information I would be most grateful.

Hello Yeomans,

If the Hersteller code of the last photo you posted is as I believe, “jfw,“ then it would be:

Otto Bark, Motoren/Wasserpumpe für Jumo 211 (1945), Dresden, Tharandterstr. 35 (S).

Steve,

Many thanks. Yes - the Hersteller code is "jfw".

The aircraft was a Ju88A-4 that crashed at Blackbrook, North Holmwood, UK on 14 March 1944.
