They were mainly fighting near Yelnya and Smolensk (central sector) until end of September. Late that month, some Staffeln moved southwards and claimed in the areas of
- Poltava : 4 claims on 30.09.43,
- Chernobyl (sic!) 3 claims ca. 4.10.43
but were alrerady back in the central (nealry North) sector on one week later:
- Nevel / Vitebsk / Smolensk / Gorki claims starting 7.10.43

In late October, IV./JG51 went back South:
- Krementschug
- Ukrainka
- Kriwoi Rog
- Alexandria

Seems they had a pretty nomadic way of life in these days. This is result of a very short (and maybe faulty) analysis from claim lists.
