Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
Post #4493It looks very much alike WNr. 175140 captured at Melsbroek, but it is parked in 'normal' position whilst 175140 was captured on numerous photos as flipped on the nose, and reported as destroyed "when a boobytrapped 250 kilogram bomb buried under its engine exploded while it was being moved by American troops expanding the runway in mid-October 1944". Interesting...

Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
