Re: Erich Hartmann and Messerschmitt Bf 109K-4
Hartmann never flew the K-4 ( or where are the evidences ?? like a flying book ), but he flew the G-10 type and both types came nearly same time from the factories to the troops and they looked nearly the same, so that could be the reason for the myth of the K-4 flying.
I dont think that an very very experienced pilot would choose an aircraft with so many technical failures for an airbattle where he has to concentrate on the enemy and not on his aircraft. He has to trust in his aircraft, and the K-4 wasnt an aircraft a pilot could trust.
