While the wreck photo indeed looks like a NMF ship, I'm not certain at all that it actually is one: remember, MACR #6405 says the aircraft was ablaze, on fire, with only 3 survivors. So, either this photo hasn't been taken at Absdorf and has just been randomly selected by the author (Herbert Lohner) of "Bildband Absdorf-Hippersdorf und der Absberg" to represent 42-99771, or, it really shows this specific aircraft.
