That third (last) Bf 109F, "schwarze 3 + |" belonged to Herbert SCHRAMM, 8./JG 53. Too bad the photographer did not back up far enough to show the rudder with the Abschussbalken.

Thanks, Ed, for your continued 'hunting,'
GRM

In the second 109 photo, can anyone read the SKZ clearly? It appears to be PE+DP. Also, a couple of questions:

What's with the crowd on the edge of the grassy area?
Wonder what those big 1940-style crosses are doing on an elderly 109 with apparently 70/71 paint?

Hello John,

I've played a bit in Photoshop with the contrast and brightnes curves, and in my opinion the stammkennzeichen looks more like PL+OM. Although the third letter could also be an "D", the stkz block PL+Dx is a known block of Bf109 G-6s in the WNr. range 18257 - 18282.

Any comments are welcome.

best regards
Tomislav
