Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source

The rudder is angled and fully hit by the sunlight at a rather low height... Not the best conditions to determine anything, IMHO.

And yes, it is a classical G-14.

Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source

It's an Erla built Bf109G-14 and it's either quite dirty or maybe it's the low light in combination with the semigloss paint that makes the 76/75/74 camoflage loose it's contrast. The rudder as well as the rest of the tail should be RLM76 mottled in the topcolors. Although hard to spot it looks like the typical "spotted mottle" used on Erla 109's at least in 1943 and 1944.

FWIW, I fully agree with Cpt_Farrel.

Hello folks!

This is a very interesting thread, but can somebody tell me why I can't view the flickr.com sites?

Cheers, Simon

Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source

Hallo Simon,

it seems now obvious that Flickr is banning from access all German I.P's in order to stick to the § 86-86a banning all Nazi symbols....

Anybody has an idea on which site I could set up a mirror accessible also from Germany?

Thanks
Marc

Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source

Hey, I finally got it working from Germany! The secret is a new yahoo-account with an US postal code AND a birth date which says you are older than 21. Then create a new connection with Flickr. So let's see what you have put up there, Marc..

Regards,
Christian
