Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source

I would like to know the name of the pilot who flew during the third season (3 Staffel Mickey Mouse) in the Condor Legion in the Spanish Civil War, the Messerschmitt Bf109E with identification number 6128. I have a good pic

Hello Karl,

This is not the place for your question.
You already asked for it/him in two other different threads and I did answer you.
Thank you for your understanding.

Best regards, Franck.

Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source

Gents,

i'm having a six-pack of "Schnaps" for tonight because flickr reliably doesn't work for me. I'm afraid it won't do as well in 2014...

Cheers

PS: Norbert, I'm really sorry to hear your Flickr plight. Maybe try it once more using a firefox navigator with preferences set on english? Or take up a yahoo account? Let me know

Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source

Hi there Gang,

Taking a benefit from my free Christmas time, I'm doing some caption upgrades. And I'm stuck by this pic of "Weisse 3", a late Mtt-Waldwerk Bf 109 K-4 W.Nr. 334xx4.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/28092068@N03/5174499734

Notice also the K-4, also from a late production batch, in the back: the W.Nr. last two digits are 08.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/28092068@N03/11566140044/

Not the slightest idea where it could have been taken. Any information would be much appreciated!

Cheers
Marc

Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source

Marc-Andre,

I do believe these images were taken by the same RCAF individual who photographed the D-13, Yellow Ten. I am Kilometres apart from my reference material, and it's bugg'n me that I can't remember the name of the photographer. He was a night fighter pilot on Mossies, either No.409 or 410 Squadron, RCAF. From there you might be able to identify the local as Hildebrandt was protective of his sources to the point it cost him.

Hi there Stephen!

Many thanks for your lead! The name given as a credit for that pic by Hildebrandt 1989 is Finlayson. There were two Flinlayson:

- F/L Ross Hunter Finlayson, 409 RCAF Sqn.
- F/O C. Finlayson, Navigator, 410 RCAF Sqn.

Trying now to narrow down where those two Squadrons were based in Germany. Will keep you posted.

Cheers
Marc

Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source

Hello everyone,

Crashed Enemy Report (CEA269) indicates that Finlayson’s photo was taken at Fl.Pl. Rheine. Bf109K-4 3+ White is possibly WNr. 33X444. The unmarked Bf109K-4 in the background is either 33X808 or 33X828; both are listed as being at abandoned wingless at Rheine.

My sources are: CEA269, Broken Eagles#3 and A311/RAF.
