If you hold your mouse over the photo it shows Ju88 356.jpg..... could be a clue as to its identity?

Hi Icare,

There is a Ju 88 of KG 54 in the foreground of the picture. That's why the file is named Ju88 356.

Regards,
Rudi.

Looks to me like another Ju 88 with its Jumo engine cowling and a broken canopy.
What makes you think it could be a French aircraft?

Oops. Must have been that rich food over the holidays that blocked the blood in my vains going to my brain.

You're absolutely right. It looks like it's a second Ju 88.

Regards,
Rudi.
