Ummm...I believe D-ALOH is actually a Ju86E-0. The Ju86Es and the later Ju86G-1s (also with a revised, less-pretty nose) were phased out of front-line service in 1939 (some served in Poland). My understanding is that the nose was revised, in part, to alleviate issues with taxiing visibility which was poor in the Ju86A-E series bombers. I haven't been able to find a reference to a Ju86M-series anywhere.

Cheers,
