Hi, Thank you, but this cannot be correct, as it was a Bf110-C1.

Perhaps, Mr Schmitt, you could quote your source for it being a C-1...

Re: Me110 Werk Nr 5488

Many Thanks Gentlemen,


This wing Panel is a friend of mine and he asked if I can help him with any history, that is why I turned to you. It also has the letter B on the outside painted on it. Hope you can help with the mystery.


See below. Kind Regards
