No id on cockpit just 'partially restored cockpit section snd central fuselage from Spanish Air Force example, used in BoB film, well travelled and spent considerable time in UK'

Rear fuselage and other parts came from Werk Nummer 2117 which was built in Oranienburg by Heinkel and entered service in March 1939. Crashlanded in lake near Stavanger in western Norway during Norwegian campaign. Recovered by divers in 1973, and then via IWM Duxford to other collectors
