Bf109 E-4 5197

Does anyone know if there are any listings for this Bf109? Heard it might have been damage in Battle of France?

regards

Mark

Hi!

Sent you the loss record

Name originally recorded as Schopper and later changed to Tschopper.

And the correct one was Tzschoppe...

Will update the loss record

Regards,
Andreas B
