Country: | There were plenty of plots to kill him. 27 I believe, if I recall correctly. But I know of no plot to kidnap him to England.

Country: | Okay let me rephrase that, there were 27 confirmed plots to kill him. To be honest I do not know where I got that from and as you said I can not confirm that either.

Country: | that makes more sence, like i said there must have been hundreds of underhand plots that were so secretive or never got far enough to be "confirmed", hell there may even be plots so secretive the governments haven't made them public yet.........

Country: | Like I said, I can not confirm it or deny it. That is just something that I had picked up over the years.

| I did hear about the plot to kidnap Hitler. A couple of squadrons were put on standby to escort a German Transport plane in but they were not told what or why. Obviously it never happened.
The squadron involved were almost used to this as they claimed to have escorted a Ju88 nightfighter into Manston on one occaision but I have no idea how true that was. | |

| As for the Transport I don't know. The Ju88 was said to have been flown by a German. It was in a book that I read some time ago but others may have better info as to the true story ir if it is fiction. | |

| I got this from the current edition of a UK magazine called Aeroplane, available in WH Smiths and other newsagents
The link is just about Hitler's piulot who was allegedly going to fly him to the UK. 
This was in 1941. If it was before Barbarossa then Hitler's successor may have proved a much better general than Hitler! Eeek
