Re: unknown WNr.
 

Hello Peter and everyone,

This Motornummer is new to me. It does, however, fall nicely within a series of Henschel F/M, Kassel-built DB605A-1/trops in my files (Hersteller code = hsr). These include:

01104126, 01104293, 01104314, 01104408, 01104515, 01104631, 01104641 (yours), 01104671, 01104777, 01104801, and 01104968.

As has been suggested, this particular model of DB605A was found on Bf109G-6 and Bf109G-14 models.

Rémi,

You're positive W.Nr. 782164 is a G-6?

Cheers
Marc

Re: unknown WNr.
 

It is named like that, the last the NO+ is also a G-6 built in late 43, I hv no Wn to add , but the only NOs I found were tested in that period,

Concerning the 782164, Matti, is given "off strength" on a report dated of 30.Sept. in the same report the loss of 782153 is also reported, I supposed that it was lost the same day as the 782153 so the 29.Sept.

Merci Rémi!

G-6 in that G-14 W.Nr. range: fact or typo?

Cheers

Well...and now what? Anybody out there who can shed some light in this G-6 vs G-14 mix-up in the 782 xxx W.Nr. block?

Thanks in advance
Marc

Re: unknown WNr.
 

Mille mercis, Rémi! Voilà un sérieux coup de froid sur mes certitudes...

Many many thanks Rémi! Much appreciated even if your data has a chilling effect!

Sifting through your data, I'm really amazed by the sheer numbers of Bf 109 G-6: starting with W.Nr. 782005 up to 782262, out of the 47 documented planes, you have only...two Bf 109 G-14! Wow! And i thought this serie was 100% G-14...

Thus the well-known W.Nr. 782192 is in fact a G-6... The same of 782249...alas

Will there be ever a respite for the folks trying to figure out the arcane of late war Bf 109 studies?

Re: unknown WNr.
 

AH I warned you off Marc!..
We are far from simple Schmoll list.
In the upper lost (extract) list given by Rémi we can even find 782422 which is registered once as a G-14, once as a G-10!!

But what is less understandable is why in four or five following WNr. we can have a G-6/AS, then a G-14 then a G-14/AS then a G-14/ASM and so on...
What reasons prevailed, who decided such a mess? Lack of components from one plane to another one?
Was it like a store at unit level if not at pilots will?

Regards, Franck.

Re: unknown WNr.
 

Guys, to bit confuse your discussion with very nice info.
My friend told me that on the location was found this, see attachment, piece of metal, with number 782159.
any idea if this is a Wnr? there was no plate with WNr found on the engine or crash site.

another question is : are there any details what happened to Bf 109 G-6 410731?
Thanks

peter
