Reini78 Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 #26/2023 After Eduard´s new K-4, my dad has finished another Eduard 109, this time a G-14. Hauptmann Franz Wienhusen served with JG77 and JG5. In October 1944 he became CO of the IV.Gruppe, JG 4, and flew this Erla G-14. A partial pic of this aircraft with the typical Erla camo exists. On December 3rd 1944 he was KIA in a Regensburg G-10 near Aachen/Germany during ground attacks on an American convoy. The two aircraft are mixed up sometimes in profiles, models and infos. Used the decals from Eduard´s Regensburg G-10 kit for Wienhusen´s G-14. Painted with Mr Paint RLM 74/75/76, EZ Line used for the antenna wire, plastic rods and lead wire for the brake lines.

echen Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Terrific build. Wondering if this 109 was operated on D-day and tried to blend in with the opposition a bit?🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgeusa Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Your father does such excellent work on his kits. Just a smashing build and an even better paint/weathering finish. Just all around great. Thanks for helping him share these with us through your superb photography skills. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with me, must have built dozens of 109s over the years, only the very best ones remain in the display cabinet (due to limited space), the others rest in boxes in the basement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
