Thanks for the replies. So it is indeed a Whitley, does anyone knows if there were more Whitleys in Belgium than the K8985? Someone identified the airfield as Nijvel.
Are there much differences between the C47 and Li 2? I assume that the Russians use all metric size matirials instead of the emperial stuff that the Americans used.
If you need an engine for your Arado 396, I still have a France licence built Argus 411 engine in my workshop. If I am correct a 411 was the powerplant of the 396.
Still a bit strange that the Gemans painted the Dutch roundel above the fist 2 victory marks while the Dutch used a orange triangle during the time the 2 aircraft were shot down. ( A fokker T.V and a Fokker G.10
Another realy good book about the attack on the Gestapo in Oslo is writen by Cato Guhnfeldt. Unfortunately only in Norwegian text but the photos are superb.
Photo 32 and 33 are on the “afsluitdijk” The dike between the counties North-Holland and Friesland. The tall building is the monument were the dike was closed in 1932. More information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afsluitdijk
That fuel coupons must be from Belgium or France as the language on them is France. Do you have any idea to which airfield the flew in the Netherland? Perhaps you have any photos of the arrival?
