This is a rare Henschel 129 A. Only a few were manufactured, considered as under-powered, as compared with the B version equiped with Gnome-Rhone 14.
Many of the Hs129A were located in Orly, FRANCE for training missions.

Cheers.

Thierry

Hi

http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...m=190202615882

This is an interesting photo but still unknown aircraft.

It looks as though it is a Blenheim of 18 Sqn WV code. The serial is L88--

Assuming 1940 but have also looked at 1939 and 1941

There does not seem to be a match?

Looked on 'Lost bombers' - no luck.

Any thoughts?

regards

MS

Hi Mark.

I see L93.. in the serial too so it looks like Parabelllum is right.
