Re: Four Pictures

Salut Franck,

#1: the small wheel bulges on the wing, the refined cowling bulges, the horse-shoe type oil tank and the oil filler cap hatch in the lower position are clear indicators for a Bf 109 G-6/AS or G-14/AS.

#3: same characteristics as #1, so also a Bf 109 G-6/AS or G-14/AS. No unit signs can be seen. The W.Nr. can be guessed, applied on the upper part of the fin. This a common practice for Mtt built machines.

#4: shot taken at Bonn-Hangelar in late March 1945, showing the wreck of WNF built Bf 109 G-8 W.Nr. 202 113 "Grüne 7", unit unknown. Hitchcock 1977, p. 4.

Cheers
Marc
