Re: info on victory claims on bf 110 rudders

focusfocus,

I've had a high interest in this subject for many years, as we're recreating high quality profiles of all the a/c flown by Bf110 pilots who won the RK during 1940, or into very early 1941. So I have every photo I could find on the subject.

I agree with André's listing. The one still listed as U/I (Item #2) is another version of the Victor Molders scoreboard. Apparently the painter applied two different versions of the scoreboard. I have photos of both of them. Your theory about Eberlein doesn't hold up. I have the full 1939-40 victory list for 1939-40, and he only scored two victories while he was with I./ZG1: the one, a Hudson, on 15.04.40 and another a Spitfire on 14.05.40. He had no other victories with 1./ZG1 so this couldn't represent him. I have no info on victories by him with 1./ZG1 during either the PC or the WC.

Regarding Item #3, I have this image, and I believe that the most likely pilot is Ofw Johannes Lütter ? originally with II./ZG1 but by this time with II./SG210.
