Gotha Go 242 reference photos for the new IBG Models 1:72 scale kits

Following on from their announcement last Friday (see below), IBG Models are releasing a pdf on Facebook featuring an illustrated history of the Gotha Go 242. This to coincide with the imminent release of their new 1:72nd scale kit. 

There is another option for modellers looking for Go 242 images, especially as I doubt that SAM will be publishing an 'Aircraft in Profile' feature any time soon - the ECPA-D web site has some great images of the type. 

Go here https://imagesdefense.gouv.fr  and put Go 242 in the search box at the top of the page. 

The photos taken by PK reporter Karl Ottahal are of note - as he was KIA* in September 1944 his pictures are free of rights (ie public domain) - one of the reasons why you can download them from the ECPA-D website at a decent size with no watermark. Ottahal's report shows Gothas on Crete en route to North Africa to resupply the Afrika Korps. File reference is DAK 238 

(*Ottahal was the gunner on board an Aufklärungsgruppe 123 Ju 88 coded '4U+KK' that went missing en route from Athens to Crete on 5 September 1944).
