Late war Bf 109 pictures source

[red-star25]

Last aircraft in 460-Block was 460671.
Next was 461160. There are some loss-reports of aircraft within the gap,
but this must be typos.

Didn't see one: on both Georg Morrison or Michael Balss listing.
Not really an information.

[Marc-André Haldimann]

Thanks for your information, Dirk. It is much appreciated.

Sincerely

What do you want to ask? Which does mean: "Not really an information"? There is no further "information" on the statements of Dirk.

Why do you bark?
Marc did use the word information, too; it wasn't a problem.


What I want?
I want you to publish a book instead of ...always barking against who doesn't know like you do-who-did-study-the-original-Erla-documents


So please next time you want to bark, bark against Prien, JCM and Gogh who all are TOCH members, it will be fair and more courageous.

"...bark against Prien, JCM and Gogh..." ??????????? --- I think, China has a bigger problem than Corona. My time is too valuable to me to discuss such a nonsense.

Enough, everybody, no need for anyone to get into a fight.

Please return to calm discussion of Bf 109s.

A nice surprise from the East:

This photo does show IMHO an abandoned WNF built Bf 109 G-10/R2 from NAGr. 3 as evidenced by the VBKz "J2+32".

Photographed with Russian aircrews in front of it in May 1945, could the location be Neubrandenburg, the last known airfield used by this unit ?

With my thanks to Spektor, over on modelforum.cz, for the pointer.

Cheers

Hello Marc,
Post #995 - Judging by its lower cowling bumps and low CWSDH (Cold Weather Starting Device Hatch, visible by the man with the cane’s right arm) I think this is a Bf109G-14/AS. Also among its technical suite are a larger Fo 987 oil cooler, missing Erla Haube, and a tall wooden tail fin. Its small “J2” code suggests Nahaufklaerungsgruppe 3.
Respectfully,
Steve Sheflin

Hello Steve,

Thanks as always for your valued input: i indeed missed out the cold start hatch in the low position, a give-away for a DB 605/AS engine. I can but concur with your analysis: it is indeed a Bf 109 G-14/AS, leaving thus only two possible manufacturers, Mtt or Erla, as WNF never built Bf 109 G-14/AS.

As for the unit, we fully concur.

Cheers
Marc
