Fw 190A-6

Hello Remi

This was an A-5 werknummer block (710 001 - 710 080) built by Fieseler at Kassel although Rodeike states that these aircraft were redesignated from 0157 376 - 0157 401 also built by Fieseler at Kassel and the series ended at 710 070. Leutnant Günther Scheel (71 victories, RK, missing in action 16 July 1943) of 2./JG 54 was lost in Fw 190 A-5 "Yellow 8" (W.Nr. 710 002) of 3./JG 54 after colliding in aerial combat with a Yak-9 fighter 12 kilometers northeast of Bolchow.

Horrido!

Leo
