Re: New Bf109K-4 pictures

Dear Roland,

Thanks for your highly appreciated comment. This leaves now both places open: Wertheim as Vilseck-Heringnohe have the same hilly surrounding... I will check out all indicated pics once at home in order to get a clearer picture.

As a side note, Poruba and Mol did analyze this ultimate camouflage variation for them only to be seen on the Bf109K-4's found at Wertheim, as stated on the captions of the photographs they used in their book. Those Bf 109K-4's dispersed under cover of a forest are btw well known pics which were published - for the first time? - in Thomas Hitchcock's 109 Gallery way back in 1973, the first book which addressed the late Bf 109 version in a systematic way.

Cheers
Marc
