Hello! This the sign for the handle to lose the Box With flaregun ammo from the fuselage, in case of fire! You simlpe pull the handle and it falls outwards!

It was in all german Aircrafts I think. I would like it very much! For a restoration!

Best Chris

Hi Tolesa,

you wrote "NO WURF FUR BOMBE".
Doesn't mean it mean it maybe "NOTWURF FÜR BOMBE" ?

When the bombs were still on board and the plane was under fire or in preparation for an emergency landing the bombs must be away. There were a lever which you had to pull, called "Notwurfhebel" - Notwurf für Bombe.

Hi Tolesa,

looks like that would be the plate for this lever of which I had talked about.
Really a nice little find.
