Geschwaderkommodore "Pik As" - Maltzahn's 109F-4


Recommended Posts

Decals finally done. I'm not too thrilled with her so far.

The tropical filter is probably gilding the lily a bit. The original detachment of JG.26 in early 1941 was tropicalised, but the majority of JG.53 aircraft weren't - in the initial stages anyway. Later in the Mediterranean campaign they were bringing aircraft to and from North Africa, but I am banking on this, an original late 1941 arrival, having been ferried out with tropical kit which could be removed or replaced as required.

Thanks guys.

Almost there... fuel tank to go on before flat coat. Then greenhouse (the 109E open canopy fits a treat) and aerial wire. She's getting to know the Opel refuelling truck and Kubelwagen in the case for now while I finish up on the others...
