Re: Info Needed on Me109 G6 W.Nr. 20451

To Mike,

Yes, but his last recorded flight in the machine was on 15-Aug-43. His next sortie in his FB was on 22-Sep. Note that both Prien & Barbas record the WNr. of the machine he flew on 22-Sep as WNr. 20451 - but go back and look at his FB entries (attached). Per his FB he last flew WNr. 20451 on 15-Aug. The repeated quote marks stop on the 15th (flt #1241), his next recorded flight is on 22-Sep ('<< +', flt #1242) - no quote marks, different machine. NOT WNr. 20451 - lost on 17-Aug!! Then from 26-Sep he is flying WNr. 20070. Appears to be a misreading of the FB by Prien & Barbas - if I'm seeing this incorrectly - I'm more than happy to be corrected.
