Hi Michael

That will be a difficult question to answer since II./JG 54 continued to maintain Bf 109 G-2 fighters on strength through August 1943 and we have no way of knowing which type was he flying on the majority of the missions flown during this time. The only way of answering this would be his logbook but I have no idea if this exists and I doubt that it does. II./JG 54 began receiving Fw 190 fighters in December 1942 and completed conversion in August 1943 so it was during that time period that he transitioned from the one to the other.

Horrido!

Leo
