First guess was the Do-215; based on the front fuselage with all the glass. The only thing that had me baffled is the engines. All the pictures of the Do-215 show a more closed cowling around the engines.

Then on second thought I am pretty sure it is a Do-17 now because of the open front of the engine cowling.

That and I just happened to see this picture at Rod's Warbirds while looking at engine cowlings on Do-17's and Do-215's.

Do17z

lol the plane type is easy how about what group/staffel?

9./KG76

9./KG76 was formed 1.5.39 in Wels from 9./KG158 (III./JG76) and flew flew the Do17z until they coverted to the Ju88a on 12.40 - 4.41 at Illesheim. 9./KG76 used some Ju 88C in 1942/1943.

On 10.6.44 - 12.44 at Alt-Lönnewitz  III./KG76 was converting from the Ju 88A to the Ar 234. 9./KG76 moved to Münster-Handorf on 17.12.44, and remained there to 3.45 while the rest of III./KG76 were at Burg.

Just a Do17?
