Identity of Well Known Do 217 Photo
Can anyone confirm one way or another? Some records say this ac coded +HN was 5./KG 6, 15./KG 6 or even I./KG 66. From what I can see (and Marcel van Heikop as well), these aircraft were initially coded 3E+AZ (I have also HZ, MZ and CZ). However markings are similar to those adopted by KG 100 so could it be something like E-5, Wk Nr 5631, 6N+HN lost 24 Jan 44?

Hi Chris.
Did you ever get an answer to this. I finally subjected it to a barage of filters and it appears most likely to be 6N. Mike

Mike: Thanks for this and for at least confirming what I suspected. It has stumped others
