Re: Bf 109 G-6/U4 and the MK 108
Hello George
I checked from my copy of Mankau's book and yes we are talking on same picture. And what more the same photo is published in Suomen Ilmailuhistoriallinen Lehti 1/2004 and according to that publication in the photo Oberleutnant Werner Rapp is showing a Bf 110 G-4 of NJG 5 to Finnish officers on May 12 1944. The Finns were not pilots in the night fighter training but from an earlier group which was sent beforehand in May 44 to Germany to a fact-finding mission on German night fighting systems and equipment.
