Hello,

Thanks...

Thanks khorat,
that is the picture with the plane. It got the "1259" below the canopy. Possible the WNr.
Its from an old Ebay auction (thats why it is "damaged" with the black bars :-(). The informations are "El Alamein, 1942". If it is the same plane, it must be repaired again after the 80% damage. The question is: Is it an recon unit? Is the plane modified as Bf 109 E-9?

Hi,
on 14-May-43 it was with JGr. West and damaged 60% at Pauillac as E-7, engine trouble. No info on a possible E-9.

My guess for a E-9 comes also from this Bf 109 E "black 13"... it got the same marking style. And the plane got no wing weapons.

Is the marking style specific for a recon unit?

Hi Guys,
for F6+ I have AG.(F)122 and AGr.23 ... But the emblem I see on photo sent by Steinhoff doesn't match pretty well?
