Re: Picture of "The Messerschmitt Me 109 @ Barretts Car Showroom 1940"?

Hi Leo,
As stated in the Crash Report:-
"Fw. Xavier Ray of 8./JG53, Bf109E-1/b W.Nr. 4034. Report No.3/139 Me 109 crashed on 2/11/40 at 0905hrs near Lower Hardres. Map reference R.5601. Markings 6+I. All in black outlined white. Camouflage yellow dappled green grey all over. Vertical red band 10" wide round centre of engine cowling. Spinner red without usual hole at the tip".

So the Me109 displayed in Barretts Car Showroom in 1940 is probably not same as the Karl Raisinger Me109 displayed at Rootes Motors Limited Maidstone Kent....

Does any one have the picture of the Aircraft that was displayed in Barretts Car Showroom ?

Many thanks
