HI Guy!!

I bought from an Italian collector the german aircraft seat

I believe it's from He 177:rolleyes:

Can you help me to understand if my opinion is correct?

Hi Otis,

Your own photo of the data plate is proof aswell. Bauart 8-177. Luftwaffe a/c numbers starting with (R)8-... always were followed with the aircraft type number. I have attached a pic of a Me 109 engine mount ring as an example. The R8-109 number is visible at the 12 o'clock position. The number following 109 is the part number. So together with the pic of Midcrow, 100% He-177.
Cheers from Holland,
Sander
