WW2 german aircraft propeller

[cossack1648]

I think that because of the size it may be from Ju88

[junkers88a1]

that is from a Junkers 88 A4 ( no idea about the value )

If it is a Ju 88 prop I would pay 500 euro for it.

But isnt it too long to be from a JU87 ?

You are right and I was wrong. I've got a Ju-87 prop in storage and was just able to get to it this morning to measure the height (it's got too much other stuff around it to pull it out for photos). It's approximately 63 inches tall (but otherwise very similar in appearance).

I got this answer from a guy called Ned on warrelics.eu

Thanks for the extra info. I can confirm that this blade is from a Junkers Ju-188 High Performance Medium Bomber.

The number 941211.15 identifies it as coming specifically from the Ju-188 A1 type that was powered by the Jumo 213A engine(s).The other 'A' series models (A2, A3 and A4 had their own respective prop serial numbers being, in order, 941211.16, 941211.17 and 941211.18. After the initial 'A' production series of aircraft using the Jumo 213A engines, the more powerful BMW 801 G-2 engines were fitted under the designation Ju-188 E series.

There were slightly different prop spec. types used on all the 188 series, but Gunny Hartmann is correct in stating the airscrew diameter as being in the 3.6-3.7m range, well done that man!

Total Ju-188 production ran to just over 1230 aircraft, so this is a fairly rare prop blade, especially when you consider that it was only fitted to the initial A1 series bomber. Below is a couple of pics of the 188 A1 that used this type of prop blades.

Regards, Ned.
