Hey guys,

I finally have the intelligence I needed to fix the Junkers Ju-88A-4 and A-11 series aircraft's fuel capacity. I have included files for the A-11, the desert model, since I think I will finish up Mezzagosto before going back to the Balkans project. This same fuel load can be used for the A-4 model using AirEd.

The Ju-88 has a tendency to "eat" fuel, so I did some research with the help of my kamaraden at the Axis History Forum.

http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=197853&p=1792222#p1792222

Not only did the Ju-88 have a 1,220 liter optional tank in the front bay, she also had a 680 liter optional tank in the rear bay. With this configuration of both fuselage tanks, the Ju-88 finally has the "legs" to fly a long-range reconnaissance over the Pedestal convoy from Sardinia.

I will try to do the .dp work to include the rear fuselage tank, but this is not my forte. Let me know if anyone can help.
 
Done...
