maybe for Bartels A/C we do not know actually what the late war G-10 looked like markings wise

 

[Lucky13]

Right.....cheers Erich! Would it be a decent profile to work from though? Do his Black 13, Red 13 and this one....

Hey Lucky,
Was reading this thread from the beginning and got to the post about Marseille flying a Yellow 13. Have to go away to work for 6 days and where I am, the internet is sketchy. I don't know if you have resolved the issue yet(will continue reading when I get back) but here is a clipping from a book stating he did indeed fly a yellow 13 if only to make it his 5th crash landing,

I tried to email this to you but me and emails don't get along. Ignore this if it's already been dealt with.
