    Help needed for identifying an old luftwaffe engine generator

    I purchased some years ago from an auction, an old Luftwaffe's engine generator. Does anyone know which kind of engine is coming from, or maybe which type of aircraft? Thanks in advance!

    Question on Luftwaffe protocols for missing aircraft??

    As someone that knows very little about military protocol, I'm looking for someone to explain the procedures/protocols that would take place when a Luftwaffe plane did not return to base.

    Luftwaffe Jagdgeschwader Markings

    Does a list exist of the symbols used to identify Luftwaffe Jagdgeschwader - e.g. S for Schlageter in the case of JG 26. I have looked at several books on Luftwaffe markings but not found such a list.

    Luftwaffe Dornier Do 217 Part Identification

    Hi All, Can anyone help identify this part please. I'm trying to identify where on the airframe this part lives (see photos). The part is stamped: R8.217.522.131.01. I believe this is from a Dornier 217. There is a further stamp on the right: 3506.0 XZ1. Any insight would be appreciated.
