Photo's 01-03: Focke-Wulf Fw 200C3 Condors of 4./KG40 Another view of the same aircraft. F8+KM, taken while in use as a cargo plane during the Demyansk bailie in Russia. Note the yellow fuselage band denoting an aircraft operating on the Eastern Front. The very impressive tally sheet on this KG 40 aircraft shows around 38.000 tons of Allied shipping destroyed. This aircraft is believed to be one of the 2. Staffel of KG40. A squadron painter scrapes excess paint off a new mission marker on the tail of one of KG 40's FW 200.
