Summary
[edit]DescriptionJunkers Ju88R-1 ‘360043’ (PJ876) (47076575291).jpg |
Landed undamaged at Dyce, Scotland, on 9th May 1943 when the crew defected. The aircraft was escorted to the airfield by two Spitfire VBs from 165sqn. This was quite a coup as this was the latest German night-fighter type. Within five days it had been flown to Farnborough and given British markings and the serial ‘PJ876’. An extensive series of tests and evaluations followed, ending in April 1944 when the aircraft joined No1426 (Enemy Aircraft) Flight, based at RAF Collyweston. When the unit disbanded in January 1945, the aircraft joined the Central Fighter Establishment at Tangmere, before being allocated to a maintenance unit in October 1945. Between then and 1974 it remained in store other than very occasional static appearances at public events. In 1974/1975 the aircraft was restored at RAF St Athan and in 1978 it went on display in the Battle of Britain Hall at Hendon. In 2017 it was moved to Cosford when the Battle of Britain Hall was removed to celebrate the RAF's 100th Anniversary (nope, I don't understand it either!!). At least the '88' is now more photographable in her new home as part of Cosfords 'War in the Air' hangar. RAF Museum, Cosford, Shropshire, UK. 9th June 2018 |
