Re: Messerschmitt 109E/F canopy Info?
Hi,
Usually the key part to decide a serial or WNr was the fuselage, just as during wartime in the repair shops, so I suppose it may depend on how much of the original fuselage has been used. As regards canopy panels, the forward top panel did slide back and sometimes (maybe always) had a perspex knob or bar glued to it to make it easier. On the He111 crew members sometimes fixed a 'bristle' or felt type draught excluder at the back edge of the left side sliding panel, maybe 109 pilots did the same occasionally? Regards David |
