Re: Three interesting Bf109 pictures on eBay

Hi there,

@Marc
I recognize I'm quite lost with that RT+??.
The only place I found RT+xx data is StKz.de, Bert Hartmann site, where RT+UA to UZ are given as being Bf109G-8, without WNr. indications. (More, no mention of one Bf109B, RT+??, WNr.593, for which we can find two pictures in Falcon site.)
No RT+xx at all data in van Gogh list.
All Bf109G-8 are given as being produced in WNF, not Regensburg.
Note, that picture shows us a small "beule", G-5 style, the same we can find on MT-483, WNr.710012, a Bf109G-8 of Finnish AF; but without tall fin.
May be that "white 27" painted on cowling would be a clue for either unit or type? Just a suggestion... In the mean time, Finnish AF planes used to have such numbers painted on cowling... Just another suggestion.
Last, RT+UG, a Bf109G-8, is supposed to have flown with 1./NAGr.6 in June 1944.

@Primoz,
The only Seiler's mount I know wears a white 1, but why not? Note that on that picture we can see not only one faded "white 7" but TWO. One being bigger an positionned a little bit forward.

Regards, Franck.
