Re: captured german planes in color

Hi Franck,

in one of the "Bf 109 G/K" volumes by Krzystof Janowicz the Werknummer of this plane is given as 20285. This would make it a Bf 109 G-6 produced by WNF during summer 1943. For me the photos are not so telling, however. Visible more clearly are only the last three digits of the Werknummer, which could also be ...785.
In any case, it sure looks like a G-6 (or a G-14 with it's FuG 16 ZY antenna missing), but obviously it has been retrofitted with the later-model wings as they feature the larger wheel bulges.

Regards,
Christian
