Bf109s on eBay, 1st of november 2014.
 
Gentlemen,

here is my today's choice.
1. http://www.ebay.de/itm/FOTO-LEGION-C...item58b7afd7aa
- A Bf109A
2. http://www.ebay.de/itm/FOTO-LEGION-C...item2c90258e05
- A Bf109B with variable pitch propeller and three MG-FF as proved by central MG cartridge exhaust slot on cowling side. (That's the main reason I do like the B-2 denomination like Ries did even if it's not official; but at least we know what we are talking about)

3. http://www.ebay.de/itm/Deutsche-Jage...item541331f07d
4. http://www.ebay.de/itm/Messerschmitt...item5413320a80
5. http://www.ebay.de/itm/Messerschmitt...item58b7aedce0
- Here I'm surprised to find "Arras" in seller's caption... Most probably B versions, old style black cross and the famous Bee emblem on fuselage originally seen on some Bf109E-0s from JFS Werneuchen/JFS 1.
If it's so, quite important photos!

6. http://www.ebay.de/itm/Foto-luftwaff...item3a9a20b25f
??
7. http://www.ebay.de/itm/Foto-Flugzeug...item5d51639210
- What about that "Gelbe 5"?
8. http://www.ebay.de/itm/Foto-Flugzeug...item5d51695880
- Yes, III./JG77. the emblem is clearly visible on cowling put on ground.

Best regards, Franck.

Hence we got a unit and place for all this earlier batch!.. And one code number Actually.

Aaaaah Yes!
This is an E! Thanks Falcon!

Start to be a lot of machines displaying this emblem now.
If I remember well, 6 years ago, when I started to post in LEMB it was just considered as a mere PK emblem, created for such circumstances.

Best regards, Franck.
