Captured Wings Wiki


History[]

Built by Ago at Oschersleben,[1] and assigned to 1.SKG10, operating from St. Omer, France, as White 6, Werk Nr 152596 had a temporary black finish, and was flown by Unteroffizier Werner Ohne, who landed accidentally at the RAF airbase at Manston on the night of 21 May 1943, and was quickly taken into custody. After capture, 152596 had the black finish removed and British roundels added,[2] and was given the British serial PN999.[3]

The aircraft was probably scrapped after July 1946.[2]
