Hi all:

Any info on plane and pilot?

I must admit not being able to assure that it is an F or a G. Perhaps the tailwheel looks as belonging to a G-4 or G-6, but the canopy frame looks narrow, as belonging to an F...

About the tail band, I am almost sure that it is yellow, but it's width, together with the third Gruppe bar, is not according to any Russian front unit, as far as I know (apart from I/JG53 in 1942).

The vertical bar would mean III/JG3 or III/JG51 but the tail band is always narrow in these units.

Speaking of a Gruppenkommandeur of those two units, the victory marks would be right for Karl-Heinz Greisert in June-July/1942 and for nobody else in that time, considering that the photo is not taken in winter.

If the photo was taken in 1943, I don't have enough information.

I would apreciate very much your comments.

Regards

Saludos
