Re: some Bf109 images,anyone know it?
It is still in the USA. It was owned privately by a gentleman in Florida. A friend of mine rescued it from the floods that were plaguing St. Louis around 9 months ago, and the owner sold it to him.
Expect it to be airworthy in 4-5 years. The previous owner fixed it for display by adding BONDO (car putty/filler) to the damaged areas...so a lot of skins are going to be needing some replacement. We have confirmed that wings are G6, tail is G2 with retractable gear, and forward cockpit is Spanish. Unfortunately, all data plates were removed, so there is no way to confirm the ID of ANY of the German parts. There is a written werk number on the tail, which was assumed to be the original ID of most of the German parts. Restoration will begin this summer...
