some wonderful pictures from the Bundesarchiv :-)

[kendo65]

Yep, those are the ones. All posed then...

Have to say, some of the Bundesarchiv pics of the Dorniers in formation are incredibly atmospheric.

Remind me a little of the incredible sequence of photos taken by Rolf von Pebal and included in the book The Hardest Day. They document the low-level attack on Kenley by 9th Staffel KG76 on 18th August. You see them approaching Beachy Head a few feet above the waves, heading inland with panicked civilians in the streets below and finally the most famous of the sequence showing a Spitfire in its blast pen at Kenley during the actual attack. (interestingly the original version of this wasn't dramatic enough for publication in Der Adler and was retouched with extra smoke and fire effects!)

I've had a search for the pics online but no luck.
