Thank you, Marc. That is a very likely candidate.

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
I also believe that the Mistel photo was taken in Bernburg (Ju 88 G-10s were, as far as I am aware, only found at Bernburg and Dessau).
By the way, there are two Fw 190 visible in the background (one barely behind the starboard landing gear of the Ju 88). I believe that the following photo shows that particular Fw 190: http://www.ebay.at/itm/foto-luftwaff...4AAOSwdDBZh2Dh |

Concerning the He 162 in post #548:
http://www.spiegel.de/fotostrecke/ph...-54868-12.html To my eye the hangars behind the He 162 are the same as the hangars in the distance at the top left in this photo of Bernburg. Jim |

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
Re. Ju 88 G-10s: Some were also flown to Polenzko / Zerbst Airfield in March 1945.
This was north of Dessau, but lots of G-1 Mistel conversions were found in Merseburg / Leipzig area, and place-names very often got mixed up, especially to US Army personnel that (fortunately) roamed this area southwest of Berlin. I do not know if any were found there, but most were found in Bernburg or Dessau (ref: my lists). I say fortunately as lots of images of their exploits have come to light. |

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
Not seen that Ju 88 S/T lookalike before, suggest North Germany
RAF pilot, thus captured by Brit forces (?) |

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
Ed,
At first glance there are two names of German towns in the album: Vorst & Bückenburg. - Vorst is probably Tönisvorst near the Dutch/German border, between Venlo & Krefeld. - Bückenburg is located between Bielefeld and Hannover. Both places are indeed in the north of Germany. Regards, Rudi. |
