No G-14/AS in that block found so far. As for the G-6 blocks, yes quite a few.

Exploring more carefully the 412xxx block I would ask if this block was
dedicated only for G-6 or it may have some G-14 among them?
If so,please between which range?

Eduardo.

What records I have indicate that the 4127xx - 412899 range had some G-14 and G-14/AS. Far more of each type are in the 413xxx range.

413601 was the first G-14 shot down and captured by the Allies in Normandy, at 09:30 on 22 July 1944, by light AA fire near Fontenay-le-Possnel. I placed the article on the a/c description in The 109 Lair (http://109lair.hobbyvista.com/index1024.htm).

The designation "G - 14" was found on the ID plate (registered in the report) or it's your educated guess from technical description?

Best wishes
Rasmussen

As far as I remeber, this raport describes MW instalation, oxygen Kugelflaschen moved to wing, different spark plugs and boost gauge marked with 1,70 ata.
What is really fascinating - the inner undercarriage doors surfaces are described as red primer painted.
Wasn't it just a sign for a ground crew that this one needs C-3 fuel?
