Re: 17/02 - Bf109s on eBay - (2)

Peter Rodeike has identified similarly marked Fw 190s as belonging to IV./JG 5 (pg 101). He guesses that they may have been passed on from JGr. Trondheim. The caption from Mombeek does not mention a specific unit...
"Fighters Over Russia" by Manfred Griehl (Luftwaffe at War series vol 1, pg 50) shows a similar Fw 190 in a repair hangar. The various machines in the hangar have the over-sized numerals typical of JG 5.
