Re: eBay: one photo, two Bf 109 with "strange" markings.

Hi Guys,

Yes Roland, have the same coming from Andreas and LW in Norway site or something like that.

WNr.14653 is quoted, too, on 23-Dec-1943, 3./JGr. Süd, KG+WA, Fl.Pl. Nimes - 20%. Notlandung wegen Motorstörung. Source (Quoted by Lino) AERO.

I's very interested by Merlin comments while a little bit surprised that David didn't know about that ... Why not? But is it possible to have more about this?
That is:
- WNr. painted - on fin and elsewhere - while in repair shop.
- Was it a common practice for ALL repair shops?
- How much time, starting from when, ending when ... and so on???

As I wrote before I'll be glad to receive more informations - and photos, if possible - about that habit (?).

Cheers, Franck.
