Re: Bf 109 WNr.2658 ?
Hello Franck,

yes, the Arado built Bf 109 E-1 WNr. 2658 was indicated as WNr. 1215 in loss documents. The WNr. 2658 results from a French inspection report and an inventory of the I./JG 51 status September 1939. The WNr. 1215 was a Bf 109 E-3.
Sources:
JFV Vol. 2 pages 277/278 (two photos of the red 14 in a hangar and the loss survey of the I./JG 51) and JFV Vol. 11/II page 575, correction of the entries in Vol. 2.

Regards
Leo
