Been a bit busy....but time to get this bird posted.
The Third in a series of JG53 aircraft which experimented with a host of non standard camouflage schemes during 1940 and added the unusual red ring to it's Bf109E's for a short time in the August-September period.
This aircraft was most likely taken over by Wolf-Dietrich Wilke who claimed his 6th victory on the 11th Sept and numbers 7-8 on the 15th Sept, making it quite possible the reference photo (6 Victories) was taken during these few days when Wilke was appointed as Hptm. Harro Harders replacement.
