Default for Skipper and the Campbells and anyone else interested

Gents here are a couple of scans of late war LW nf's taken from Merkurs drawings. Although this is after the time that Mr Campbells Lanc was downed vs G-1's thought you may want to have a copy.....





the lower drawing shows the Ju 88 in the anti-sipping role

here is a photo of the typical Ju 88G-6 with canted radar aerials



from I./NJG 3. In the upper drawing the very first one the canted aerials were removed and a centralized spike was used with small x members to reduce drag and RAF interference. And in most cases this long "dagger" was covering with a plywood nose-cone. this being the usual FuG 220d radar-set

E. Campbell will become famous soon enough

Erich, thanks for that. Great set of drawings and the photograph captures the scale of the JU88 - it is a much larger aircraft then I imagined it to be.
