Re: Bf109 on eBay - Unclear or unknown emblem

Thanks Franck, I'm fine. The wings are there in the emblem but not easy to see at first. Checkout also post#1 on this thread http://wwiiairwaroverthenorth.yuku.c...ic/689/1-F-124 and you'll find that this unit in Nov 1943 had:

1.(F)/124
- 13 x Ju88D-1 at Kirkenes, det. in Alakurti as Kette Lappl
- 1 x Ju88D-5 at Kirkenes, det. in Alakurti as Kette Lappl.
- 4 x Ju88A at Kirkenes, det. in Alakurti as Kette Lappl.
- 2 x Bf109G-4 at Kirkenes, det. in Alakurti as Kette Lappl.
- 2 x Bf109G-4/R3 at Kirkenes, det. in Alakurti as Kette Lappl.


Looking closely at the Bf109 I see the camera opening feature under the fuselage. It is possible the Fw190 has a similar installation(?)
