The last couple of days I have been looking for websites that have pictures of WWII German aircraft that also show the airfield and/or the hangers in the background. I have found Rods Warbirds and it has really good pictures but almost all of them have been cropped which is great if all you want to see is the aircraft, I also checked out LEMB and it has great pictures too but not much of the hangers or airfields.

Does anybody know of other websites that have pictures of WWII era German aircraft and/or airbase? Late war or captured airbase pictures would be ideal.

TIA,

You might want to inquire over at Cross and Cockade International, The Society of First World War Aero Historians. I haven't been through their site looking for pictures, but someone there might have something for you.

Looks like one of the XP-60 variants to me.

You might want to try looking here, I have found some good pics there before.
