Re: Battle of Britain Bf109E found in India a few years ago?
An interesting feature of this airframe is that it has a blanked-off panel replacing the triangular quarter light perspex that forms stb lower front part of the front screen assembly. Other photos I have seen show this as a ribbed steel plate with an aperture for a flare pistol. It can be seen, just, on one of the photos on Jagan's links.
Also interesting in that it has a capped spinner cone.
