Re: Bf 109G6 Wnr. 440004
Is it just me but the positioning of the swastika and Wk Nr (and their size) make this a bit suspect?

Re: Bf 109G6 Wnr. 440004
I do have a close up of the tail of the Bf109-G6 from NASM, stripped of paint so it is very clear where the rivets and screws are. I just don't know how to post images on this site.
I will say that this 440004 is pretty close but if I could post the image that I have, then all can see and make their comments. Tony |

FYI, that third photo shows Bf 109 G-6 W.Nr. 202113 of 2./NAG 13, 40% damaged in a crash landing following engine trouble, 13 February 1945. The wreck was inspected by the Allies at Bonn-Hangelar on 22 March.

I shall attempt my first URL image posting. This is a Bf109 G6 Vertical Stab under restoration.
