It's amazing what information one can get by clicking on the link in the posting. It will answer all of your questions.

There are many Ju-88's out there, with several having been recovered in the last 10 to 15 years. For more info on other Ju-88 recoveries and restoration check out this link:

If you want a good reference on Junker AC..this is a great place to snoop around.

http://www.geocities.com/hjunkers/ju_home.htm

For each AC type, they also have a good listing of survivors.

This site is part of a good German AC page(s) group. http://www.geocities.com/hjunkers/homepage.htm
