Re: Help to solve the real identity off me109 at sola aviation museum

Look at the seat back.

I am fascinated that wood and other materials were already being substituted.
I knew it was a late model thing...but I believe you are saying this is likely an early G of some type?

According to Vogt, the instrument panels of the Bf 109G-6 changed from aluminum to wood approx. from WNr 19000 - i.e. from spring 1943 on.

You are not looking at the seat back.

You are looking at the support for the fuel tank. They were ALL made of wood from the F-K.
