Interesting. Couldn't make out what the guys were yelling in the background but sounds like a bit of comic relief.

I think both those 109s have since been bashed up in ground accidents IIRC.

The sound track is from the first scene in the film The Battle of Britain and the voices are the actors.

The footage of the 109's and the Spitfire was taken from the DVD.. Me 109_One Summer - Two Messerschmitts.
Some fantastic footage on that to be seen.

I was lucky to be at Duxford when the two 109's flew and it was luck as it wasn't a normal flying display I just went mid week to have a look around. The year was 1996. A rather poor photo is attached.

It was but what intrested me was that they were supposed to be the same version yet there were some obvious differences.

...what interested me was that they were supposed to be the same version yet there were some obvious differences.

These two aircraft are of same version, namely Bf 109G or "Gustav" as this version was nicknamed, but they are of different sub-variants. The one in desert camouflage is G-2 model (entered service in 1942) and the other one is G-10 model (entered service in 1944). There are other differences between this two sub-variants other then their appearance - like engines, armament, etc.

Here is a small 55 sec clip I took of a Bf 109G that I saw at an Airshow near Stuttgart last September.
