Re: Me109 with long tail wheel strut
Karl,
Thank you for an exciting photo. I believe this is Erla-built Bf109 6+ - black, last serving with II./JG52 and surrendered at Neubiberg. This aircraft is the only example of an Erla-built Bf109G-10 that I have documented at Neubiberg that was apparently operated by II./JG52. All other II.JG52 aircraft were WNF-built Bf109G-10/U4s or Bf109K-4s. Along with the fact that it arrived with II./JG52 when they flew in to surrender, its unit affiliation is further suggested by its small, white-outlined black numeral and II.Gruppe bar. This style of plane markings was found on most, if not all, of the Bf109s found at Neubiberg, Ainring, and a few other Austrian bases. This new photo is especially interesting because it the first one I have seen that offers even a partially-clear hint of its Werknummer. Your suggestion of 150035 as its Werknummer is possible, as are 150835 or 150935. Steve Sheflin |
