Re: eBay: One late war Bf 109
Ha Franck, a great shot indeed and a very frustrating one also. The W.Nr. is to be seen in the usual place at the base of the fin; unfortunately, it's the small numeral version, which can't be read... As for the camouflage, it's an odd melting pot: the spine line speaks for Mtt-Regensburg, but the blotches for Erla... Probably a repainted - and thus repaired ? - airframe.
As for the unit, I do think it sports the Eastern Front yellow tail band; "Grüner Winkel" is obviously a Stab plane, and I'm not knowledgeable enough to guess the unit. Time frame is quite clear thanks to the tall wooden tail; Summer 1944 and before July by judging the still standing crop...
Romania? I wonder which country's cap is wearing the sitting officer...
Cheers
Marc
