Re: Mirrors on Bf 109
Hi Adam

I think JG 53 had a few adherents: Hptm von Maltzahns and Hptm Rudolf Lochner's Bf 109 Emil White 6 had a mirror (picture in the Prien Rodeike book) as did von Bulow's machine, and colour pictures of Gruppenstab III/JG 3 Green 3 with a mirror, however they didn't seem to migrate enmass onto the F version (although I do have pictures of two unidentified JG 53 F varients with mirrors).

Attached is Yellow 10 of III/JG 53 1940

Hope this helps

Chris
