Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source
Hi there Gang,
Thanks to Tomas Prusa, over on FB and stemming from modleforum.cz, we have this picture of another Erla built G-6 with two interesting features: https://www.flickr.com/photos/280920...in/dateposted/ 1. We have the Erla factory W.Nr. painted under the handgrip next to the rear cockpit: I read 44'234. Any concordance with an RLM W.Nr. ? 2. The three digits yellow tactical marking are known both for JG 102, JG 104 and JG 106. Any clues as to which unit used the 3xx numbering system ? Thanks in advance Marc |

Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source
Why 44234? For sure I can read 442xx only not more ...
The 44234 belonged to an G-14 and was destroyed in November 1944 for 100%. So it couldn't found by American troops in May 1945. |

Thanks Jörg,
Any other candidates in that W.Nr. range ? Cheers Marc |

I like your fantasy to read WNr.'s, Marc. :-)

When I click on link I get Bf 109 G-14/AS W.Nr. 782 104 ...not Erla G-6. Hope my computer is not kaput. D.B. |

Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source
Ah D.B. this is all about mixing up two themes. Falcon gave us the original link to the pic discussed as an Erla G-6.
Thanks to Tomas Prusa, here is the page from where this photo emanated; obviously one from the NARA collection. http://axis-and-allies-paintworks.co...wtopic.php?388 Cheers Marc |

Re: Late war Bf 109 pictures source
Hi there Gang,
We have a string of new Bf 109 G-6 pics here: Beyond saying the basics (Bf 109 G-6/R6 with a tall antenna mast) which allows to date those pics from the Summer of 1943, no clear evidence for the unit. https://www.flickr.com/photos/280920...in/photostream https://www.flickr.com/photos/280920...n/photostream/ This one comes a bit better off: probably "Schwarze 5" from 5./JG ? Any ideas about location and unit ? https://www.flickr.com/photos/280920...n/photostream/ The last one is more of a Sütterlin reading issue: a Mtt-Regensburg built Bf 109 G-6 which tactical number "Grüne 674" does ring a bell for 6./JG 104. If not totally mistaken, this pic might have been taken at Roth in July 1944 (According to caption). https://www.flickr.com/photos/280920...n/photostream/ Any precision would be greatly appreciated Cheers Marc Last edited by Marc-André Haldimann; 20th April 2016 at 12:01. |

Hi there Gang,
We have for a change two new pictures of a WNF built Bf 109 G-14 which W.Nr. 510xxx is probably legible on the original on sale here: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Jagdflugzeug-...MAAOSwfVpYnEM5 http://www.ebay.de/itm/Jagdflugzeug-...kAAOSwOgdYnEM8 The scene speaks for one of the pine forests near Berlin and clothing of the Staffel members does set the period in September - October 1944. Any ideas about location and unit ? Cheers Marc |
