Re: New Bf109K-4 pictures

Hallo Marc,

I´d like to agree with you that the "Grafenwöhr" and the "Wertheim" pictures show the same camouflage. But I´ve never read about Bf 109 assembly lines at Grafenwöhr or Wertheim, at least Grafenwöhr certainly didn´t have neither an airfield nor plane production. The Luftwaffe airfield next to Grafenwöhr is Vilseck - Heringnohe and here the G-6, the G-14 and the K-4 were completed:

The airfield is in the background; the bent road crossing the photo from right bottom towards the runway marks the former railway supply tracks.

Anyway, the fuselages didn´t reach their destination and they seem to feature the very last camo variation for the Bf109K-4. The almost-ready Flossenbürg K-4s fuselages still have RLM 76-painted bottoms, those prefabricated fuselages only have rudimentary RLM 76-spraying at the sides.

Regards

Roland
