Emil of H.J. Marseille
 

Hi all,

I am not much in focus of H.J. Marseille and his planes. I found out that there are photographic evidences on his four Friedrich messerschmitts. But does anything changed in last few years in identification of his Emil messerschmitt he flew in early years? Any info and tips would help.
Thanks

You need to get your hands on "Hans-Joachim Marseille, A Resource Guide to the Aces and their Aircraft" by J.H.Kitchens III and J.R.Beaman Jr [Chevron, 2007] as this covers details of 11 of his Bf109E's. For an online example, click here... and we also discussed it at length over on the LEMB here.

Thansk Peter,I am aware of the existence of book

11 of Emils? It is much more than I expected...
I am looking for the data to create profiles. Dunno if I buy a book just for this reason. Anyone maybe can help with the best documented sample? :)
THANX
