Re: Bf109A question
Hi
It would appear that the Bf109's initially sent to Spain were the B variant, where ihe B1 had a wooden propeller and the B2 a variable-pitch metal prop. The terminology wasn't fully adopted until after the Civil War. Spain later received the C variant , and the E after the war.This comes from"Aircraft of the Spanish Civil War" by Gerald Howson,published by Putnam, where there is a lengthy article on the type, pp231-235. If you can, get a look at the book which ought to be available 2nd Hand if not new.
Regards
Dick
