Re: War Weary - Time Expired Aircraft
Hi Broncazonk,
Regarding the Bf 109 F versus introduction of the Bf 109 G, quite a few of the former were recycled in the Mistel program, like for example Bf 109 F "CI+MX" or Bf 109 F-4 W.Nr. 7083 "KF+WG", a former JG 77 machine. That those were not isolated cases is exemplified by the 30+ Mistel 1 of 6./KG 200 lined up at Burg bei Magdeburg in June 1944, many of the control planes being older Bf 109 F and early G's.
