Frankfurt Airport roof terrace museum August 1976

[fatherfaff]

Not sure if I'm in the right place or whether this is "Heritage" but I was there spotting USAF Globemasters, Starlifters, Galaxies and Hercs in August 1976 and there was a sort of open air display on the roof terrace of old aircraft but it is hard to find confirmation of their original identities, in particular:

T-6 painted in Focke-Wulf type IIWW mottled scheme with a big red "JP" painted on the side. It has been suggested that this was a La Ferte-Alais ex-FrenchAF F-BMJP (51-15049), but I can find no mention of this airframe ever being at Frankfurt and how it got there or why it should be there.

A Me-108/Nord Pingouin in Luftwaffe camouflage but no ID markings (I've seen a picture of it on the terrace in 1975 with a Bu-181 Bestmann D-EDIB with shark's teeth but this had gone by August 1976)

A MS500 Criquet (like a Fiesler Storck) in Luftwaffe camouflage showing reg: D-EMIL, which may have become D-EMWF (although someone has posted that D-EMIL was destroyed in an arson attack!?). Supposedly c/n 763 but that is uncertain too!

Any more info or confirmation or links to more info welcome! Thanks again.

PS: Also there was CASA 352 D-CIAS (ex T2B-155) and Dragon Rapide D-IGUN (apparently later broken up to restore another Dragon Rapide) whose identities are not disputed.

I found the following thread on "Flugzeugforum.de" about the very subject with an extensive list of the aircraft displayed at Frankfurt (and other places if you read through) .
Th identity of the Harvard is brought up but no answers.

I've been going through some old photos and came across this one:
Frankfurt Airport roof terrace 1979
Not the best quality, and almost impossible to see any aircraft markings...
