DEEP STORAGE - 2
Firewall, Engine Mounts and Cannon Bay. These images show the mounts for the Jumo 213 E1 engine. Further back is where the Mk 108 30mm cannon would have been mounted. You can see the ammo feed and cartridge ejection shoot. The inside is left unpainted, natural aluminium rather than RLM02 Grey. At the very back is the hatch into the cockpit compartment. The engine was nowhere in sight, nor the VS9 prop and spinner.
Wings. The wings were high on a shelf, not ideal for photography. Nevertheless they confirm it as a H-0, pre-production aircraft. You can count 9 circular access holes for servicing the control linkages. On the right, towards the wing root is a rectangular hole. The H-1 had 3 circular holes here to access the wing mounted fuel tanks which were absent in the H-0's wing. You can just see the ailerons and rudder sitting on top of the wing.
