Hello Raz, Ron, Jim and John,

Thank you all for your help.

Had hoped that the details of the 'plane he was in on the 12th of April 43 might just have come to light. Anyone ???

But there is a bright side to this thread, I did look in the Flypast magazine mentioned and there was "GP+IZ" he flew on the 5th May 43 taken from the port side.

I had seen this a/c photographed proped up on drums and trestles , but taken from the starboard side.

Now how about this ?

The "1" ( as noted ) shown on the white tail band is not a "1" but an "I" from the "GP+IZ", the letter shown on the starboard side in the same place is the letter "P".

There do not look to be any other markings on the aft fuselage other than these two letters and balkenKreuz .

The "Z" looks to be outlined with white (or white tape) on the underside of the wing cannot see detail of under the starboard side of wing.

Any ideas as to the colour these codes would have been, as those on the fuselage do not look as dark in the photos as the "Z" under the wing ???

Thanks again

Still hopeing for the Bf109 of his for the 12th April 43.
