Hello
nothing very noteworthy but in RAF Yearbook 1975 E. Brown writes that he clocked 384mph(618km/h) at 23,000ft (7 010m) when he flew a Bf 109G-6/U2 that had landed in error at Manston on 21 July 44. I think this was the plane that became TP814 and in the photos I have seen on it it had gun gondolas. Also in the article Brown writes that he used in take-off 1.3 atas boost. So probably he also used same boost when he checked the max speed
