Re: eBay: a Stab JG27 Bf109.. with Stab emblem??
Hello
sidney - I believe the sequence of these photographs to be as shown in the attachment. I think we can all agree that the available images show the aircraft at the same location. In the second and third image it is clear that the area is under Russian control - and in the third one can see that the wings have been removed - this aircraft will probably fly no more. The only questionable thing here is I believe when the first image - the one that was recently offered for auction - was taken. I believe that it was taken in the spring of 1942 and the two others later the same spring. Now - is it showing a German soldier on the photograph or not? If it is - I believe we are looking at a location where the Germans were briefly - possibly with smaller infantry units only - but not long enough to recover the aircraft or even have time to destroy it. Other solutions? Regards, Andreas B
