Re: Mosquito in Luftwaffe markings
I knew about this Mosquito, but I had never seen a photo with both propellers attached.

Re: Mosquito in Luftwaffe markings
Hello,

I edited the entry in the Wikibase. That's certainly not 'damaged beyond repair'. Thanks and have a nice day.

Re: Mosquito in Luftwaffe markings
The source photo is most certainly T9+XB as there is a letter 'B' which can be seen on the fuselage and the tail and under surfaces are newly painted yellow.

Re: Mosquito in Luftwaffe markings
From the LEMB some years ago.
Photo shows that propellers were damaged on landing on the beach.
Later photos show her in Luftwaffe markings T9+XB without propellers at a September 1943 Captured Air show. A new pair of propellers were still to be acquired from other downed Mosquitoes.
Aircraft definitely shows a camouflaged uper surface before being repainted in Luftwaffe colours.
