Re: Bf110C-4 W.Nr3097 ZG26 1940

Steve,

There is a BA photo of Maj Johann Schalk, GrKdr of III./ZG26 standing with two other pilots. In the background is a Bf110C with the codes 3U+A? visible, and the last two digits of the W.Nr. ??97 visible on the rear fuselage. There are four white victory tabs on the upper fin.

This may not be Rossiwall's a/c, but could also be that of Schalk, 3U+AD. If anyone has another film frame from this sequence confirming that this is 3U+AD, and the full W.Nr., including possibly 3097, I would also appreciate knowing about it. We are doing a Color Profile series on Schalk, and I need to document the full markings on this a/c, regardless of who it belonged to. Rossiwall is thought to have usually flown W.Nr. 3044.

Who can help?

Regards,
