Identification Bf110 G9+G(?) with seven Abschüsse symbols?
 

Dear all,

Who can identify a Nachtjagd Bf110 coded G9+G(?) recently sold on Ebay, the rudder of the a/c shows seven Abschüsse symbols, the first one for a Polish aircraft shot down, then two Dutch aircraft, and finally four British aircraft. Regrettably, no dates are given with these Abschussbalken.

Cheers and thanks for any pointer, Theo

Maybe Victor Molders?? in 1940....before his transfer to JG51?

Hi Michel -could well be! At present though I have no documentary evidence that could confirm two Abschüsse by Viktor Mölders over Dutch aircraft during the short Dutch campaign of 10-14 May 1940, hopefully other members can comment on that!

Cheers, Theo

There's been some discussion over here as well some time ago. Maybe this helps: http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/showth...ktor+M%F6lders

But why are the so-called Dutch claims marked with a Dutch triangle placed upside-down..? That doesn't make sense to me.

Seems he favoured G letter :) Like W.Falck.

Thanks chaps for providing the definitive identification of this aircraft. Two last questions: what was the code for Viktor Mölders aircraft in 1./NJG1 (G9+GH?), and is the right spelling of his first name Viktor or Victor?

Best regards, Theo
