Re: Bf109 Loss 7 Sep. 40?

Peter,

Thank you for the, as always, helpful and informative reply. The identification of W.-Nr. (5798) and sub-type (E-7) leads to another question. On Falcon's excellent Bf109 site, W.-Nr. series 5791 - 5823 is associated with the E-4/B sub-type. Assuming the W.-Nr. in this case (i.e., 5798) to be definite, can it be said if the difference in subtype was a case of a production-line change or a post-production field modification/repair upgrade?

Steve
