Fieseler Dora @ Halle; full W.Nr & other details
Hello again!
I've been curious about this(these) bird ever since I saw the frame captures in Crandall's Dora Vol. 1. In Crandall's book, the image only shows "6007xx", but a link found quite a while ago to Framepool and subsequent investigation revealed additional, important detail! Almost all digits of the werknummer on this extended frame capture! The last number is just obscured in the film, but a glimpse can just be seen of what I strongly believe is a 9, making the full W.Nr on this replacement tail "600789". I currently don't have access to the W.Nr listings, so I don't know if this is found there. Also interesting is that this generic tail replacement doesn't appear to have the few spots of mottle that are usually found. Painted only in RLM 76? To add nice detail, a great view of the stabilizer stencil and RLM 81!

I have this to block from 600761 to 600800 (But a note saying that it may have extended to 6008100
Can anybody else confirm or add - Cheers |

Oops - my fault - I wish I could add an extra zero to my salary - you are correct should read as 600810

Re: Fieseler Dora @ Halle; full W.Nr & other details
I finally managed to check the W.Nr. listing for Dora's, and there is already a match for "600789".
So this bird is most likely not "600789", but possible candidates remain as "600783" or "600785"? If anyone would have more info, it would be greatly appreciated!
