Re: Help to solve the real identity off me109 at sola aviation museum
Hi!
The chart is just shoiwing examples of numbers...so we cannot conclude that becasue the numbers are similar in your areas, that they are from that exact type airframe.
This is because almost every werk number block could have had the 3 numbers you are referring to.
In the photo you attached a few posts back, it is clear that the wings are later G (meaning G5 to G14)...as you can clearly see the wing bulges for the larger wheels.
The "G" on the gear legs, simply means "G"...as in "Me109 G".
The gear legs on the F and early G were quite different. If you can take a photo of the LOWER part of the gear leg (where the wheel attaches), I can tell you 100% if the legs are F or G.
But that will not really conclude anything...just confirm what type of legs are on it.
Stamping on the gear legs from F onwards did not match up with any aircraft werk numbers. They were just an assembly number or werk number of the leg itself. So researching from the numbers on the gears leg I would not do, as they will not be givng us any concluding information.
If you can take some good overall photos of the cockpit, we will be able to determine if it was an F converted to G...or an original G build.
Possible?
Mike
