On the dio:

Bf109E-7, of 9./ZG1, S9+?T, 1942.

Strange, while in Russia they didnt use airfields together with Fw190 regiments. But it is not looks like Africa on the background.

- for first profile: Messerschmitt Bf 109E-4/B of ZG 1 (Wespen Geschwader)
- for second profile: Messerschmitt Bf 109E-4/B of III/SKG 210 based at El Daba in October 1942

Actually, there were a number of instances where you'd be able to find both the Bf109 and the Fw190 at the same field, and of the same JG...

Case in point, Jg54 (On the eastern front) was in the process of converting thier units over to the Fw190 from the Bf109G during the time period of 1942-43 and you would have the opportunity to see both aircraft.

I can appreciate John's input, but Imalko had posted a source and I saw it was challenged. That's why I posted that.

Now if Erich had posted the correction, I would have taken it as gospel, but I'm not familiar with John. Simple as that
