Re: eBay: one late Bf 109 with RV Band: JG 4

Gentlemen,

I am not 100% sure if this is really Hooks a/c; Crashed Enemy Aircraft Report No.265 mentiones a Bf 109 G-14 "blue 17" with "black, white, black stripes" in the area "S of Eschweiler" among some other losses of I. and IV./JG 4 a/c on 03.12.1944.

Further this report gives the Werknummer with "46074" and the engine with DB 605 ASM, which indicates a G-14/AS.

So, we have a report of a "blue 17" of JG 4 with a crippled G-14-Werknummer and an AS-engine of S of Eschweiler (= Mausbach?), Hooks G-10 "blue 17" 490 373 and a crash location near Scherpenseel - but in any case case, neither the Werknummer nor the type of engine matches...

Regards,

Heuser
