Re: possible MC 202?

It may be that Franek has something about the MC 202. I looked at, Fighters Over Tunisia. On 14-Jan-43 the authors write of the action and specifically mention Lt. Meyer. They speculate that it may not have been a 109 as reported by the squadron, but MC 202s, one of which claimed a P-38 in the early PM which was seen to crash in the Makassy-Mezzouna area exploring on contact. An MC 202 can look very much like a 109 when in combat.

Do any of our Italian researchers have some information?
