Tätigkeitsbericht der Deutschen Forschungsanstalten und –Institute

[Steve Coates]

Long shot query.

During the war, the ZWB published periodic summary reports of the work being undertaken by the various German research institutes, such as the AVA, DFS, DVL etc as opposed to the E-Stellen. This series was entitled Tätigkeitsbericht der Deutschen Forschungsanstalten und –Institute.

The IWM has three of these reports. The Deutsches Museum has one which unfortunately matches one of the IWM's three. Has anyone in their researches come across additional reports in this series?

I had not heard of these. Could I get the dates of the three you found? I might be able to help.

Best,
Ed

Steve -

Wouldn't these periodic summary reports be in the NASM/Smithsonian collection? This is the repository for all things dealing with all matters concerning WWII Luftwaffe aviation development, experimentation, testing and manufacturing. Richard Eger's long-time contact there was Larry Wilson and he was still there 4 years ago, which was the most recent date I had contact with him.

Larry - Thanks. I was rather hoping to track down paper originals but it might be worth posing the question particularly as the NASM now has an in-house database it's developed for its T-2 reel holdings.

Ed - Thanks for the offer but I don't think the particular dates would help.
