Thanks Ian,so it fell in East Berlin,behind the curtain. It sounds like that wind tunnel is still extant. It's on my list next time I have a day off in Berlin.

Nice one Darren and very interesting. Where did they get that photo? I was sent it by someone in Russia! I need to double check the Bundesarchiv now to see if I missed it there lol.

Theuns ,I think he is eyeing the cable holding the aircraft up a bit suspiciously!
