Re: Unknown Bf 109 red/yellow 5
And a quote attributed to LEMB, explaining why there is no cowling;
"The Messerschmitt Bf109E-3/B, WNr.4101, Black 12 of 2./JG51 was shot down by a Spitfire on 27 November 1940 and made a wheels-up landing at Manston. The aircraft was taken to the RAE for examination and fitted with a new fin and rudder from c/n 6313F of II(S)/LG2, a new upper forward engine cowling from c/n 1653 of JG51"
