Messerschmitt Bf 109K-4

[Lucky13]

Well, thought that I could try to find a suitable subject for my K-4, with all your help of course!

So far I've got these two...
Lt. Herbert Abendroth, III./JG 77 Bf 109K-4 "White 13" POW 1 January, 1945
Ofhr. Rudolf Aickelin, 7./JG 2 Bf 109K-4 Werk # 330412 "Yellow 13" KIA 1 January, 1945

So, more suggestions for some '13's', are as always very much welcome!

Nice one old boy - and at Revell prices, not inflated Hasegawa prices !

 

[Lucky13]

Totally old chap!

 

[Crimea_River]

Must have a look out for that kit. I want to do a late 109 some day and this one looks pretty good.

 

[Lucky13]

You should, it's a very nice kit!

 

[woody]

Nice looking kit looking forward to to the build.

Parts look very well molded, but kind of strange the way they broke the fuselage in two.

 

[Wayne Little]

Parts look very well molded, but kind of strange the way they broke the fuselage in two.

Made it easier to do the separate late G fuselage with altered panels and tail wheel area.

Is this going to be a 13?

 

[Lucky13]

Sure is Wayne buddy....of some sort.

 

[Lucky13]

Just having a sniff around for those that flew the Bf 109K....

[Maximowitz]

JG 77 would be an interesting choice...

 

[Lucky13]

It would indeed mate!

 

[Wayne Little]

k-4 White 13 of 9/JG77 flown by Lt. Herbert Abendroth, W.Nr 330204 with the Green/White bands is on my list Jan...

 

[Lucky13]

Is this one of then very few of Lt. Herbert Abendroth, K-4, W.Nr 330204....

Another interesting subject!

 

[Crimea_River]

Right, but that's a G-10, not a K-4.

 

[Lucky13]

True! Well, it's a '13' anyway!

 

[Maximowitz]

How about something really obscure?

A KG 6 (J) 109 K-4!

I doubt you'll find a "13" though.

 

[stona]

For something really obscure how about one of the few known Erla built Ks?
Here's 570375 nicely obscured,as is usually the case in these photos,by a bunch of GIs.

There is a profile of 570276 in Wolowski's booklet too.

Cheers
