WNr. 130502 was reported with NSGr 2 on 7. April 1945 at Halle-Nietleben (Ultra HW5/691).

WNr. 130505 was lost at Prag-Kletzan on 16. April 1945 due to strafing. It was with 3. III/SG 2 and had the code T6+LK.

WNr. 130512 did an emergency landing at Münster on 8. June 1943 due to engine trouble. Was with FlÜG 1 and was damaged 30%.

Ju 87 with Werknummern from the 130.51x Batch were built at Weser Flugzeugwerke Lemwerder and I have quite a few "Werkflüge" from May 1943.

Further to the Ju 87 D W.Nr. : thanks to Eric Duda, the grand son of Vaughan Pitman, who scanned his photos and established the website, I have a confirmation the W.Nr. is 130503 indeed.
