Re: eBAy: Captured german planes

Hello Rudi,
Thank you for posting this interesting photo - Post #4394.
This is a probably a Bf 109 G-14/AS. I say that because it has what appears to be the smaller oil tank found on the G-14/AS. Note also the remnants of a starboard curved refined cowling return; lower cowl bumps; deeper Fo 987 oil cooler, and large upper wing bulges. The missing electrical connectors found on the firewall would help clearly identify the engine type: DB 505 AS or DB 605 D.
Respectfully,
Steve Sheflin
