Hi Tony!
It's now included on my website. I haven't listed it before since it wasn't recovered. I usually only list recovered aircraft since then they are cared for and therefore I regard them as Preserved.
And by the way, Dave's the one that informed me too! He's got some pretty good contacts in Norway.
I guess the escort for the Norwegian Ju 88 staffel will come from ?Finland with their staffel of Bf 109s (2 Bf 109F-4, 1 Bf 109G-2, 2 Bf 109G-6 and a pair of 109E wings). There's some new pics of these 109s and finnish blenheim stuff on my site as of today if you haven't seen it. Oh, by the way the finns got a SB-2 bomber wreck in storage... So the monino example isn't alone anymore.
