Hi Todd,

could you please enlarge this plane?

Regards

Robert

[Todd Gylsen]

Sure thing. Unfortunately, the aircraft doesn't come in very clear when enlarged. I'm not able to make out any of the numbering on the aircraft.

[szorob]

Hi Todd,

could be "E" and I see the fuselage band so it was from 7./KG76 or 9./KG76.
Thanks!

Robert

[Todd Gylsen]

Robert,

THank you very much for the possible unit identification for this aircraft!!
