There is at least one and possibly two AI2(g) reports on the aircraft found at Celle (other locations were covered in the same document)by the RAF intelligence team. There
were also 2 pages of photographs post capitulation in Aeroplane several years ago. I have just moved and can't get to my files, but possibly this is enough direction to help
some.

Does anyone have list of German A/C found at Celle in 1945? Were there any He 111s and Fw 190F-8s?
Thanks

In "Broken eagles 1", in the background of 2 views of the Fw 190 D9 Wnr. 500613, you can see a He 111 ??+AH.
Hope this Help.

Hi, Franek,

Eric's reply is right, as I actually do have the same booklet. For more just look at My reply from 18th Feb. regarding to the request of Allan Hillman "Celle * either Luftwaffe
or RAF".

Best regards

Norbert

Thanks to all
The reason I've asked is the photo of Fw 190 with He 111 visible behind, see http://geocities.com/bookie190/End.htm
My friend Adam Skupiewski says it's early Fw 190F-8, and my first guess was for Celle A/F as it has been often visited by Polish airmen of 131 Wing.
Have to look more.
All the best
Franek

Hello,

I´m searching for Allied inspection-reports of enemy airfields in Germany 1945, esp. the Celle-airfields.
I need information on captured Ju 87, as I´m going to write a book about the German Nachtschlachtgruppen.

Any information welcome, will give full credit in my book.

Thank you very much in advance.

Greetings,
