Bf 109E and He 111
Hi,
Could anybody help myself in the identification of these two aircrafts, Bf 109E and He 111? Units, pilots etc... http://militariafuchs.de/gerdchen-1.jpg http://www.warbirdsresourcegroup.org...s/he111h-2.jpg Hugs, E. Brettas www.avesdobrasil.com.br |

Re: Bf 109E and He 111
Second photo appeared some time ago in japanese publication, there were other shots also I think the unit was K.G. 53. Looks like H-20 to me.

Re: Bf 109E and He 111
Hi,
if I read correctly, the picture is from "Brieg". Brieg was the home-base for I./NAG 102 during 1943/44. This unit flew advanced training for recce-pilots with a lot of Bf 109 Es on hand. These Emils used fighter-style codes at least during January to April 1944. HTH Carl

Brettas...
Heinkel He111 is an H-20 variant. Additional photos and information can be found/seen in Kampfflieger - Bombers of the Luftwaffe, Summer 1943 - May 1945 by Nick Beale (Classic) on page 329 and Luftwaffe Camouflage & Markings, 1935-45 Vol 3 by J R Smith & J D Gallaspy (Kookaburra) on page 79. These photos name one of the three crew members as Oberleutnant Dietrich Kornblum (in the centre of this photo) , Staffelkapitän 4./KG53 and another as possibly being Major Herbert Wittmann (on the right), Gruppenkommandeur II./KG53. The aircraft was coded A1+KM, with the 'K' and propellor spinner fronts in the staffel colour of white, and the location is given as probably being Plaistow on the Russian front in June 1944.

Re: Bf 109E and He 111
Hi,
Thank you very much for the information on He 111. I have a Heinkel He 111 of Monogram esc 1:48 to build, but I would like to paint this aircraft with the colors and some known pilot's marks that flew He 111. Don't I have these books, would you be possible to send me more pictures of this aircraft? If this is possible my e-mail is, eduardobrettas@avesdobrasil.com.br Thank you very much. Hugs, E. Brettas www.avesdobrsil.com.br |
