Seeking photo of Maj Hans Schalk's Bf110 as Gesch Kde of ZG26 circa last Q of 1940
Hello,
Have completed the RK series for Maj Hans Schalk's Bf109D-1 & Bf110C/Ds as Gr Kdr of III./ZG26. Schalk moved up to command ZG26, replacing Huth, around the beginning of Oct., 1940. I'm trying to document the Bf110E-1 that I believe that he would have flown at that time. It should display a white nose prior to the time the unit withdrew from the Channel coast, and would have carried the code 3U+AA with a chevron on the nose followed by a very long horizontal bar, possibly in blue with a thin black outline. A photo exists of possibly this a/c, but it may be an E-2 rather than an E-1, and the E-2 wasn't produced until early 1941. This a/c does not display a white nose.
Does anyone have a photo of Schalk's 3U+AA with a white nose circa that last quarter of 1940?
Who can help?
