Wolfgang
Falch kindy sent in a photo of a stering column from a Cant Z 1007 aircraft.
Indeed a very rare object. Long time contributor Benno Goethals visited Fundacion Infante de
Orleans this spring and took some nice photos, among them an air to air photo
of Bü 133 EC-ALP and a photo of CASA 1.131 EC-YTC. If anyone can add the
serial number of the later I'd be gratefull. Raffaello Bisso added a photo of a propeller from a Ju 87 on show at
the priate War museum in Sfakia on Crete. Many thanks to you all for the
additions! |

John McKay
contributed a photo of the Me 163 W.Nr. 191095 on loan to Mighty Air Force
Museum in Savannah from NASM. Alan Crouchman added photos of CASA 2.111 No. 167 owned by Flying
Heritage Collection and of He 111 W.Nr. 2320 in storage in Berlin. He also
added a number of quite interesting photos of relics in storage with the
Technical Museum in Berlin, including remains of the long term Me 262 W.Nr.
111006 project, a He 111 wing, a tail cone from a Ju 90 or 290 (my guess is
that it is from a 290 since it was more numerous), Ju 87 remains possibly
recovered from Africa and some Do 335 tires. The last photo added by Alan
shows the sad remains of the SIPA S.121 (Ar 396) that crashed in France. Dan Wilder shared photos of some of the Ki-43 aircraft under rebuild
with Texas Airplane Factory together with information on their registrations
and serial numbers. Paul Hannah contributed an improved photo of the Kawasaki Ki-48 on
show in China. Ken Gilbert shared some photos from 1976 showing some of the NAS
Willow Grove aircraft as they looked then! Ar 196,
Me 262 and N1K1 Kyofu. Many thanks to all of you for
these updates! |
