Bf 109 G-5 "Schwarz << +", W.Nr.110 089

Former mount of General Günther Rall, shot down May 12, 1944. Forgive me if this has already been answered, but was this aircraft a 'normal' G-5 or a G-5/AS. I did a search and failed to find an answer. As always, many thanks. :)

It was a G-5/AS.

Cheers

Thanks for that! On a side note it seems to contradict the 109 on the cover of the excellent book: Günther Rall - A Memoir (a must read).
