Re: eBay: one "Schwarze(?) 10", Bf 109 E.

I agree that the photo could've been taken later than my winter 1940/1941 assumption but it seems reasonable that the rudder still came from a pilot that would have gained those victories quite early which does narrow the candidates down quite a bit. Looking at "Battle of Britain aces" at luftwaffe.cz, the one I can't rule out is H-F Joppien of I./JG51. Also, 3./JG51 used brown numerals edged in black which might be the case in this picture...

Cheers! / Anders
