Molder's F-0
I contend that Molders did fly an F-0, and offer the following as evidence. In the article "The Ace That Never Was!" by Andy Saunders in Aviation News, 23 June 1999, which covers the story of Hptm Hans Asmus getting shot down on 25 October 1940 flying one of Molder's E Wk. Nr. 3737, quotes Asmus: "Molders was flying in the first of the new 109Fs." If the F-1 did not become available until November 1940 (see page 6 of Hitchcock's "Bf 109 F), then the 109 Molders flew on 25 October had to be an F-0
