Re: Photos Luftwaffe Trainers
Hello Tony,
Thanks for the response. I assume that you already had the serial in your database. Beyond this, given what can be seen on the photo, that is not a great deal of the whole aircraft, would it be possible to differentiate a Kl 35 from a L.25 just on the visual impressions? What should I look for, in future for id purposes? This was the nature of my difficulties and tbh, I also wasn't sure until your reply that it wasn't a Bu 180. Regards, Clint |

Re: Photos Luftwaffe Trainers
Hi Tony,
I have it thanks and many more works with either photos or illustrations of the Kl 35 - it didn't help. I think part of the issue was that the tailwheel is well hidden by the long grass in the link I posted and so looks like a skid hence my uncertainty as that was, of course a feature of the L.25 vice a wheel on the Kl 35. Regards, Clint |

Mister, If you start to believe without checking what the seller is writing ... 1st. (which is the more obvious) he is selling a magnificent JG27 F-4/Trop saying it is a JFS7 machine taken at Nancy ! (sic) 2nd. The D-1 "Rote 25"+CA is not a JFS7 kite but a JG107 one taken during 1943 as attested by the Black crosses style. 3rd. GD-GX is what you want but not taken at Nancy. Hope it helps. Your faithfully, FB NB: GD+GX flown by Uffz. Josef "Pepi" Strümpf for a while but not in JFS7 as it seems (And it's not a new picture) Last edited by ouidjat; 19th February 2021 at 23:47.

Re: Photos Luftwaffe Trainers
Hi FB,
Thanks for the correct information on **+CA.I'm always grateful for any corrections.Personally I usually need the full Stkz in order to check whether details given by a seller stack up. Having said that the JG 27 F-4/Trop was rather more obvious, which is why I didn't post it. Edit Here another Bf 109, Bf 109 E-4 of either JFS 2 or Jagdgruppe Losigkeit https://www.ebay.de/itm/Foto-Luftwaf...wAAOSwjxRgMDF8 Over to you FB. Regards, Clint |

Out curiosity where was the photo taken? Seller has a second photo with buildings in the background. A clue perhaps? Since the 109s are your specialty, how do you nail this one as a JG 27 aircraft? To me it is just an F without anything else to go by.... ![]() Cheers Stig |

Hi Stig, - If I remember well only JG27 had a wave for III. Gruppe marking, didn't it? - Its WNr. is 8542 and III./JG27 did receive 8540 to 8546 (without talking about 8539 went to 10.(Jabo)/JG27 and 8548 used by Gromotka in II. Gruppe) Roughly, the photo has been taken - most certainely during delivery flight - between September 1941 and January 1942. Note both 8543 & 8546 have been accidented (destroyed by own forces) as early as December 1941. And I don't know where the pic has been taken but in Italy I suppose, most probably. Cheers, Franck. |
