Marseilles flew a '13'? I thought his were '14's.

 

[Lucky13]

Thought so too, must have been before "Yellow 14" became "his" number... This one is for '41...

This one, has "White 13" coming with the kit.....wonder which? 8)

Edit: Yup, just used Wojtek's link, it's the machine Heinz Bar and 1./JG51! 8)

Nice '13's" Jan! 8)

Has anyone got some yellow 13 109 G-6 profiles they'd be kind enough to share? (I got some 13 decals and a 109G-6 to get married )

I've got the late model G6, tall tail, Erla hood, that I did on the 21st Century kit, (see my 'siggy') if that'll help? I'm sure Jan might have one, maybe two......

 

[Njaco]

I'll check my 'stash'.

 

[109ROAMING]

Thanks guys! Sorry Terry its the earlier hood and early rudder and fin! No worries if you can't find anything Il just do another

Don't know where this came from for Hasegawa to include it as there is no actual reference to Marseille flying a Yellow 13.....

 

[lesofprimus]

I can find no reference to Marseille flying Gelb 13.....

 

[Lucky13]

Would have checked in this book of mine, but it's in Sweden....

Marseille flew the following Bf 109 E-7 aircraft.....

Wk.Nr 3579, Wk.Nr 5579, Wk.Nr 5094, Wk.Nr 4091, Wk.Nr 1259, Wk.Nr 5160 and Wk.Nr 1567, His Staffel was rotated to Germany in November/December 1941 to convert onto the Bf 109F-4/Trop.....

 

[Wayne Little]

Jan apparently 5597 should be 5579....

 

[Lucky13]

5579 should be 3579.... Sorry Wayne...!

 

[Wayne Little]

No, No, ...3579 is right. the second one also ends in 79 not 97...so 3579 and 5579.

...and will deal with those D-9 "13's" on the weekend!

 

[Lucky13]

I need to clean the screen I think....

Done...!

And cheers! 8)

 

[Wayne Little]

She'll be right mate!

About Marseille's "Yellow 13", this is what it says in Hasegawa's instructions...

"Although there is no precise documentation for this aircraft, it is believed that it was used before the well-known and well documented "Yellow 14" F model aircraft."

 

[109ROAMING]

I've had that book in my hands also Jan

Local library's got that book ,You want me to get it out and have a look?
