Re: Arado 109E plates

Gentlemen,

there is no miracle behind these tow planes. The "Änderungsliste Bf 109" (published here on TOCH) lists those production numbers for which a specific technical upgrade became necessary.

Blatt 65 of this document gives the Bf 109E-1 series from Arado and Ago on which the oilcooler cover has to be modified. Here one can see that both production areas are overlapping each other:
Ago 3300 to 3359
Arado 3333 to 3664

Consequently the information on the data plate as well as Rasmussen's reply post #8 are correct.
