Bf 109E-3 II./ JG77 (?)
Hi
Could anybody feel some information on this aircraft? http://old.messerschmitt-bf109.de/pi...400-swfoto.jpg Is a Bf 109E-3 (?) II. JG 77. The pilot's name and the place? A Hug to all, E. Brettas www.avesdobrasil.com.br |

Hi.
It's a Bf 109E with cannon in the wing. As the pilot in question continued to use the cockpit-framing from the early Bf 109's even on Bf 109F-series, I do not want to speculate further on the subtype. (It is thus a E-3 or E-4 depending on the engine type which one cannot tell from this photograph) BTW, the pilot is Horst Carganico, Adjutant in II./J.G.77. Regards, Andreas B |

Hi Andreas,
Thank you very much for the information. Would I like to know in this time H. Carganico was in Finland? Great hug, E. Brettas www.avesdobrasil.com.br |

Hi.
At the time this photo was taken (with almost 100% certainty) the II./J.G.77 was in Norway, operating from the airfields Sola-Stavanger and Vaernes mostly. Regards, Andreas B |

Hi all:
This photo was published in Prien's Jagdfliegerverbände Vol II, page 473. According to Jochen Prien, the pilot is Wilhelm Moritz. About the date, the caption says "II/JG77 Adjutant's machine flying over the North Sea coast during Spring 1940". Saludos Miguel |
