Hi there,

... It's a Belgium database in fact...
Here is a choice; but it seems some of them are known if not already published. I choose those I thought they aren't known.

I remember sending a mail to Falcon, saying "that man is a woman, isn't she?" It was not that obvious, but this happened with some pictures. Here it's quite obvious!!!!
What's the equipment put on sand filter-supercharger? Pressure test device?

Chapters start in Dutch and/or french. got to "Crash", go to "Militaar" "ach"! go to "Luftfaarht" and so on....

Cheers, Franck.

Hi there Franck,

Thanks so much for your new find...

#8 might be an all RLM 76 camouflaged Bf 109 G-6/AS from 2./JG 3; given the date of the picture (18 4 1944), this fits well with the known camouflage of the first G-6/AS, as illustrated by "Schwarze 27", of 2./JG 3, depicted in Prien and Rodeike 1995, p. 134.

#14 is a Bf 109 G-5, which might explain the pressure test....

Cheers
Marc

Hello Marc,

Welcome! I saw #14 as a G-5 too... Sure it's not a "sand filter". Shame on me.
#8 Hmmmm... I see you're starting that stuff! Well done. Is it so obvious now? Blade width isn't bad too.

Regards, Franck.

About #14, no Silica Gel capsules in the lateral windscreen panels so it's not a G-5...
