Re: Another Graf 190?
There is a photo of Graf's Fw 190 A-4 in Die Flugzeugführer-Ausbildung der Deutschen Luftwaffe 1935-1945 Band II (by Sven Carlsen & Michael Meyer; VDM Heinz Nickel Verlag, Zweibrücken 2000) on page 205.
Here's the caption: "280/281 Das Kommandeursflugzeug von Obstl. Graf, Stab JGr Ost, in Toulouse im März 1943. Die Fw 190 A-4, BK+WH (WNr. 634), wurde später an die 1./JGr Ost abgegeben. Am 17. August 1943 ging das Flugzeug (ws. 2) bei Marseille nach einem Angriff auf amerikanische B-17 verloren. Uffz. Heimberger wurde dabei verletzt." The photo shows the left side of WNr. 634. It has an all-yellow cowling with red tulips, no MG FF cannon, no extra intakes, no cooling "gills" visible - so it must have been a late A-4. The (left side of the) a/c is heavily mottled. Is this the same photo? Regards Primoz
