Bf 110 Photo of Schenk's "S9+AH"??

[Chuckm]

Does anyone know if there exists a photo of Wolfgang Schenk Bf-110e that shows the whole plane? I can only find one photo of the plane, and it only shows the rudder and the kills. I have several of Vascio's books and the Osprey aircraft 110 book. The osprey shows. a profile of the plane, but not a photo. How do they know the 70/71/65 color spec's and the look of the waspe on the nose, w/o photos.

Thanks for any help anyone might have. Hopefully Mr. Vascio might help.

I'm building a 89" wingspan 110, based on this paint scheme if I can find the proper references for it. I need 1 phot that shows more that just the rud

Chuck,

The photo you mention is, I believe, that taken at Ssechtschinskaja in September 1941, and is taken from the rear starboard side showing 15 aircraft victories, 5 tank victories and the 'AH' part of the fuselage code. There are photos of Schenck with his Bf 110 on pages 45-47 of my 'Sting of the Luftwaffe' but the fuselage code cannot be seen on some, and two of the photos definitely show him on the wing of a Bf 110 F.

Sorry not to be able to be of more help.
