Me109G6 Aircraft Information

[ouidjat]

Hello Nick and Marc,

It is true that this date, 6th of July 1943, is given like that in page 1836/1837 of Prien's book.
But just this does concern only Gerbini Platz Nr.1 We have 15/7 for Gerbini Platz 6... With some unknown date; Sciacca is given on 9/7.

Those pages from Prien are supposed to be extract from A.I.2(g) RAF report if I remember well.

So, a report error or a typo in Prien's book?

Regards, Franck.

What about learning German language? Prien mentioned in his book the meaning of the date under the name of the place (p.1829, last sentence) ... it's the last known date of an German "Verlustmeldung" for this place and had nothing to do with allied troops.

Best regards

Ah ah ah, Jawohl Herr Sturmbannführer!

And if you read carefully other posts you will understand that I'm not the only one!..

As for me, no, I don't speak German.
I speak Portuguese, French, Italian when I have time during my holidays working in China where I'm doing a lot of progress in Mandarin. I speak a lot of Arab, some Haoussa, and I did speak Rumanian.

I think you don't need help to translate French and Italian documents as part - I suppose - of OUR community; do you?

Be good, Franck.

It's good if you are interested on aircrafts from Portugal, France, Italy, China, Romania or Arabian states but if you are interested on German aircraft history (or "SS") it's better to learn German, dear ouidjat.

I'm interested on history of Czech and Polish aircrafts and I've learned to read fluently Czech and Polish documents. Near the same with Dutch and Russian language.

Correct --- I'm not interested on French or Italian aircrafts. But .. if I need this languages then I learn it itself. Thanks.

Be good, Rasmussen.

Gentlemen, we seem to have drifted from the point of why I opened this thread. If you don't mind please can we go back to what I was originally asking. Please PM each other if you want to discuss things not related to this thread. Thank you!

ok, Guys, I agree completely with Mr. Schmitt. Take your language learning comments off board or tone them down.
