    Aircraft part - Red handle marked "BOMBEN"

    Hi guys

    Unsure if this is the correct category byt please advice if its not.

    I have been offered to buy this handle supposedly a aircraft part from a crashed German airplane in Sweden.

    Does anyone know if this could be correct or have any more information on this piece of equipment?

    Thank you
    BJorn

        Most probably the emergency release handle (Notabwurf) for the bombs. If You are jumped by enemy fighters, You want to get rid of this stuff as fast as possible ...

          Thank you, from the information I have revived is it's most probably from a He 110 or junker 88 . I have tried to find some pictures from the interior showing this handle in its correct place, anyone has any I pictures to share it would be great
          Cheers

              Here are some better photos of my new handle :-)

              I think Its marked (B1) and then (H?) on one side and (45) (76) on the other.

              Anyone has any information that can connect this to any specific type of aircraft.
              Thanks

                  I have found some photos suggesting that it could originate from a Focker Wulf 190.
                  Might this be correct or are these handles "universal" and the same between a lot of different planes?
                  I was also wondering why I find the BOMBEN handle in some Cockpit pictures and not in others, where the handle only used when bombs where attached to the plane?
