Re: A.D.I.(K) Report: Fw 190 A-8 Black 11 I./JG 2 Bodenplatte Loss
That sounds like a great souvenir! Such parts with known history are a time capsule.
I think I can now confirm the W.Nr. as 173880. It is mentioned in the Crashed Enemy Aircraft Report No. 266, dated 16 January 1945: Fw 190 A-8, Place: Elsenborn, Markings: 11 + (black outlined white) W.Nr. 173880, Engine: BMW 801 D No. 329051, Remarks: Looted. Elsenborn was just about 30 km from Eupen. Since 173880 was a W.Nr. within a known W.Nr. batch, this is presumably the correct W.Nr. and not the one reported by NVM and RL2-III-1172 (173188). One mystery solved, but I need to continue looking for 173078... Cheers, Roger
