Re: how well couls bf 109 G10 gigi fly?

I think the question pertains to the mis-fitting cowl. The answer is that as long as it is securely fastened it will probably fly rather well, just with somewhat lower performance and perhaps some oil leaks down the fuselage and windscreen. I have seen at least one other photo of a late-war 109 with a mismatched cowl and fuselage. Desperate times lead to desperate solutions.

However, it may simply be that it hasn't been fastened down at the rear on the port side?
