This section contains 100% genuine relics of the great aerial conflict Second World War including the Battle of Britain. We have added this section due to numerous enquires for this sort of personal history. All items will have been legally recovered and supported with authentification. Many parts listed in other sections of the site can be linked to the correct aircraft types. The following pieces listed on these pages are from aircraft crash sites and details of the, Squadron, Pilot ,exact date, combat details, aircraft type, and serial number. In most cases if not already supplied it will be possible for a small fee to receive copies of the Squadron Operational record book and official combat reports which are available from the record office at Kew. We have found that its allot more economical to employ the services of a professional researcher. Its costs around £50 to locate and take copies of original documents. Obviously these are crash relics and will not be in a usable condition, its the history that counts and it is possible for example to build up a collection of a Battle of Britain items from start of the battle until the end . Spitfire Spares does not support the recovery of wreckage from anything classified as a War grave or any recovery not fully compliant with the current legislation. Respect for the Brave aircrew is paramount and we will not offer or purchase any personal items recovered from aircrew killed in action serving their Country.

Herbert Blockberger ME109 Frame (No.9 Pg 6 Relics)

This is a frame from ME109 Bf109G-5 (W.N . 27107) which was flow by Uffz Herbert Blockberger

Shot down by fighters, this aircraft dived steeply into the ground in the path of the Allied invasion of France. Not surprisingly it was not recovered. A small group of British enthusiasts were helped by a Frenchman, who knew of the wreck, to locate and recover the complete airframe and the remains of the pilot who’s identity was at first unknown. Fortunately sufficient evidence was found to identify him as Uffz Herbert Blockberger.

We purchased this and other parts direct from the licence holder who excavated the aircraft. None of this aircraft has been released for sale any where else, the previous owner who has excavated several aircraft over many years is now selling his collection to finance other projects.

BF110 Wheel Door (No.8 Pg 6 Relics)

Here we have a wheel door from a BF 110. It still has its ID plate attached, see left.

I believe with German parts it is often possible to identify the specific aircraft from the plate. Please contact me if you have any further information on this.

The Messerschmitt Bf 110, often called the Me 110, was a twin-engine heavy fighter (Zerstörer – German for "Destroyer") in the service of the Luftwaffe during WWII. Goring was a proponent of the Bf 110, and nicknamed it his Eisenseiten ("Ironsides").Development work on an improved type to replace the Bf 110, the ME 210 began before the war started, but its teething troubles resulted in the Bf 110 soldiering on until the end of the war in various roles, alongside its replacements, the Me 210 and the ME 410.

JU 88 Control Crank (No.4 Pg 6 Relics)

Here is a control crank from a JU 88  its from the tail or to control the elevator, its obviously from a crash but we have no idea of the identity of the aircraft still a nice rare peace.

Shown above the JU 88. The JU88 Was one of the most versatile German aircraft of the war.

It was first designed in 1936 and amazingly flew later that year as a fast daylight bomber it was soon shown to have excellent per1forma6ce and was used in multiple roles throughout the war.

B24 R-1830 Twin Wasp Engine Relic (No.3 Pg 6 Relics)

Here is a relic from a R-1830 Twin Wasp engine

The Pratt & Whitney R-1830 Twin Wasp is an American air-cooled radial aircraft engine.  The design traces its history to 1929 experiments at Pratt & Whitney on twin-row designs. Production began in 1932 and it was widely used during the 1930s.

It was selected as the power plant for both B-24 Liberator heavy bomber and the  Douglas DC-3 transport, two of the most-produced aircraft making it the most-produced aviation engine in history. Unfortunately the history of the aircraft is unknown but it was located in the Arnhem area of Holland so most likely a relic from the Market garden operation.
