Where was the gun camera on the Bf 110?

[Maury Markowitz]

I'm watching one of the compilations of gun camera footage on YT. One of the clips shows a Bf 110 attacking BD-3s - although it's in 1944 so perhaps more likely IL-4's?

In any event, I am curious where the gun camera might be positioned?

Think nothing of it. Most go directly to the last post and scroll up. And perhaps find a post of Wurger on the subject.

Now since you have been around here for a while, you can know that Wurger makes very good and accurate, thoughtfull, riddled with facts and sources and pictures, posts

Trully a commanding voice in these things.

So there that.

But it it always a good thing another member takes the time to answer a question. Just cross checking is never a bad thing.

I read your post. It is surely appreciated here.
It is not who is first i think but what is right.
Its not the likes or amount of posts that make you noted on this board.
It is what you post. I noted you for that. So i read what you have to say.

I am sorry if you think that some recieving a thumb or other mark and yours not, makes you think your post is not read or have no value.

It has. I would not repond like this if i thought your answers were not.
I will make sure i do mark your post it with something.
