Re: Bf 109G VD+V? and another one (schwarze 1) (+)

Hello all,

The "schwarze 1" picture might have been taken at Pitomnik. On 14 January 1943 Frielinghaus landed with this Me 109 at Pitomnik. He had to change planes with Hans Grünberg. But during an engagement over the Don he had problems with his machine-guns and as a result he shot away 4/5 of the props. With great luck he managed to land at Pitomnik. Pictures seem to show no damage to the props.

Does anybody have more details..?

Best regards,
Rob
