Re: Photos 2-28

Bruce, couldn't agree more! I am convinced, after having browsed Ed's listings for some time, that EVERY fairey Battle that went down in France was photographed! At least once.

This one is very interesting to me. Seems to be a Fieseler-built Bf 109E-8 (haven't got my records here so must check later), KD+EH. Note the Fieseler trademark, the all black area around the exhausts, also seen on the Bf 109T. The light spotted mottling on the cowling is also typical for these Fieseler-built machines and were also seen on the Toni. K+EH seems to have been just delivered to a unit in the field.
