Re: Bf109 G-10 late war - but very interesting camo !

Gentleman,

may I add my two cents?

The aircraft certainly is no Erla G-10 as it has the curved engine-fairings on both sides of the fuselage. Erla G-10 had a different solution for the left side.

As far as the original german camo is discernable, it looks pretty much like standard late war MTT-Regensburg. I presume it being a G-14 AS.

Werknummer 152.104 can be ruled out, as Werknummernblock 152.xxx belongs to Erla G-10/R6s and AFAIK there were no Werknummern allocated for 152.1xx anyway. Rasmussen may be able to confirm this.

The same is true for Werknummer 782.104. The 782.1xx block from MTT-Regensburg started only at 782.129 running to 782.275. This aircraft were all Bf 109 G-6s (!) with only two G-14s interspred.

Regards

Carl
