Re: Strange Bf 109 G-3

Thanks for these explanations, seem to be quite logical.
Since this drawing was in the chapter about the G-3, I was wondering, if this was a specific conversion of the G-3.
Would be interesting to see a photo of such a "ferry plane".

Re: Strange Bf 109 G-3

I know that this is a really old thread, but it popped up at the bottom of the page inquiring about the Bf 109 E-6 and I couldn't resist looking at it.

Since I also have a drawing of the aircraft, from original Mtt documents, as mentioned by Robert, I thought the other readers might like a look at it. I doubt that any photos would pop out as being this aircraft, except for the missing head armour, because it certainly would not like to draw attention to itself from enemy fighters.

Re: Strange Bf 109 G-3

I´ve read about this 3-man evacuations in Ring/shores, too.

Interesting is the date of the document which is about two weeks after the evacuation of Tunisia. It seems to me that Mtt did not know what is possible with its products until those pilots proved it to be possible.

Would be interesting whether this drawing found its way into official documents because evacuation wasn´t a word found in the OKL vocabulary
