Don't know how often you get to see this kind of pictures, so here is one Bf 109E of Slovak Air Arm. Picture taken from one of HT model Špecial books.

Translation of the text on the picture:

"Bf 109E-4 or E-7 at Vajnory airfield, 1943, pilot František Cyprich. On the fuselage are still visible over painted German code letters D-???K. Its interesting how letter K is still clearly visible."

effective use of an antenna!

It would be funny if one had to scramble with the laundry still on...

 

[gumbyk]

I guess thats one way of getting the laundry dry in a hurry!!

That's a strange looking clothes line to have in the back yard....

Glad you guys like photo I'v posted. Here's another not so often seen Bf 109 photo...

Two Slovak pilots of 13.(Slow)/JG 52 in front of Bf 109G. Picture taken in July 1943 probably at Anapa airfield. Note the person sitting in the shades beneath the horizontal tail surfaces...

how come the wheels are covered?

how come the wheels are covered?

I would guess it has something to do with the heat, the sun and air pressure in the tires. Just a guess, mind you... I saw navy aircraft parked at NAS Jax with wheels covered just like that.

Thanks, Chock! Those are indeed kewl!

We have covers for our stock cars for that exact reason. The air pressure can really go up a lot from the direct sunlight. That would be my my guess as well.

I sure wouldn't mind having a clothes line like that - in airworthy condition - in my back yard...or rather, on the lawn here where I live!
Only minus: Had to beg/borrow/steal a lot of money to get that certificate...and the insurance costs...jeez...and the fuel...and a mechanic...and...and...and...*gahasp!*

Nice pictures, though.
