Aircraft identification requested

Hi all,

The picture below was shot by Jan P. Kloos, 320 Sqn, on Zaventhem (Melsbroek), winter 1944-45. The aviator in front of the crash-landed and derelict Me.109 is airgunner Jaap Lub. Can any-one tell more about the aircraft in this picture?

Regards,

Rob

Hi,

It appears to be a late Me109 G-6. Other people on the forum should be able to narrow down the camouflage pattern to a specific manufacture, but I am not how much more info you'll find

Re: Aircraft identification requested

Gentlemen,

Thanks. Which fighter unit(s) was/were stationed in Zaventhem, latest october 1944? Do their histories yield a crash-landing?

Regards,

Rob
