Can anyone help identify this aircraft part? I found it buried at a former Luftwaffe Air Base in Denmark * Diameter: just under 1 meter (approx. 39") * Steel construction * Originally riveted to an aluminium structure * Features three equally spaced mounting brackets pointing toward the centre...

Hello. I'm working on a texture pack for an old WW2 game The Great Escape (2003). One of the levels in this game is set at a Luftwaffe airfield, complete with an air traffic control tower. Unfortunately, the textures the developers used for the control equipment in the ATC tower are very poorly...

New Eduard FW 190 A8 JG5 Machine, Norway Brushpainted with Humbrol 245, 246 + Ammo Mig RLM 74 + RLM 75 + RLM 76 + AK RLM 76 + Acrylic marker. Good kit but way too many part for simple parts. I found out a way how you can make the prop rod tight fit enough, just multiple coat of paint in the...

Has anyone encountered any technical details on the NAVAIDs used by the Germans during the siege of Festung Breslau? During the 1945 siege of Festung Breslau, the German Luftwaffe made numerous resupply flights to the Klein Gandau airfield in suburban Breslau, mostly at night. Such flights are...

Hello, New member here, and this might not quite be the right thread. I'm looking for paperwork, manuals, and just general information regarding Luftwaffe Ground Crews. I've been unable to find any books on them specifically, aside from some tidbits here and there in some other books, but am...

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!

Good day, I have been chasing around the internet the past few days looking for resources pertaining to Luftwaffe Airfield Operations as well as their formations and procedures pertaining to that. It appears there were resources and manuals however all of the links leading to those have...

In the 90’s I took part in the recovery of a JU88. details… The aircraft had taken off from a base in Holland on the 6th May 1941 as part of a large attack against Glasgow and Greenock. At 02:00 on the 7th while approaching its target at between 10,000 and 12,000ft it was engaged by a Defiant...

Looking for information or to connect with someone that knows of Luftwaffe crash sites in and around Osnabrück Germany in March (possibly February)1945. Thank you!

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. Let's say an NJG4 plane that did not return. Do they give it a few days? Is a report made and if so to whom...

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.

The FW 190 could carry a 300 Ltr. drop tank, that was pressurized by supercharger bleed air. Fuel was transferred from the drop tank to the (292 Ltr.) Rear Main Tank, when the quantity of that tank was below 240 Ltr. Otherwise it was inhibited by a float valve. An electrical pump was built into...

Hello. We really need drawings of the FW 200 C1 aircraft. Or more precisely, the location of the lines in the drawing. I searched on the Internet and basically there was only this drawing: But judging by historical photographs, these drawings are incorrect. Since they don't even have hatches...

This was my spouse’s grandfather. This photo has been in a frame since the end of the war. Up until last month, we didn’t even know his name. With the help of DNA testing we were able to determine he was Hans Karl Heinrich Henjes. He was born in Hannover on December 7, 1917. Based on my mother...
