I have had some time to clean up some of the parts I got at Shoreham.
The elevator from the Mosquito is bristling with the correct part numbers and the B52 skin has a nice Boeing Wichita stamp and correct part numbers
This part was supposed to be from a Ju87 R2 ( 5956 CB + PZ) recovered from Finland.
The aircraft was from IV (St) LG1 and crashed at Kelloselka (no fatalities).
The paint looks correct – but there are no part numbers on it ( even though it crashed in July 41.
Does anyone have any references that show a similar part on a Ju87 ?
The part is 61 cm (2 ft) long…. and was probably about twice as wide
The part was heavily damaged and just below this was a small oval hatch.
Thanks for the help
Brian.
