RK holder with Bf-109G

Nice RK holder with clean Bf-109G-6 behind him. Any ideas. I thought it might be Helmut Mertens (JG-3) but this just a guess.

Re: RK holder with Bf-109G

It's a photoshop job. The background plane is actually the first EADS restored Bf 109 G-6 "FM+MB", taken in the 90's.

Cheers
