Messerschmitt Bf 109G-2

Just received a link, that contains more detailed informations concerning the 109 :

http://www.messerschmitt-bf109.de/php-uebersicht/ueberlebende-ausgabe.php?flugzeug=68

This is a German Webpage, but might be interesting (Story of the 109 from that Picture). Also available are Informations about the “surviveing” 109´s.

I suppose you cuold count the Buchon with Planes of Fame, the one damaged during filming of Pearl Harbor. IT was, after all, only minor damage!

So how many genuine Bf109’s are still flying (if any), i missed black 6 flying and would love to see and hear one in the air.

I just received more informations :
The 109 from the Picture, is a “Ha1109”, built around 1948 in Spain. It took part in the Movie “Battle of Britain” (Luftschlacht um England), but the scenes were not used. Maybe it looked not original enough.
The plane was then shipped to Augsburg / Germany, to be on Display in front of the Messerschmitt main entrance. Later, it was changed to look like a 109 G-2. It has an original DB 605 engine, wich is for display only ( no engine run possible).

Welcome to Mr Condor!

Hope you like it here.

Me (Bf) 109 owned by EADS

Hi,

As far as I know, there is one Bf 109 G-6 flying – the FM+BB. It should have been visited this Years ILA in Berlin, but due to poor Weather situation, this was not possible. There are tight Regulations active, to perform Flights with this historic Aircraft.
Is there a Registry known from the 109 G-2, shown on the Picture ?

It is based on a Hispano HA 1109 (with a Hispano V-12 and not a Merlin..) which for many years was displayed in front of what was then MBB in Augsburg, and also in a now defunct museum there, which housed the Koch Collection. It now belongs to the Messerchmitt-Foundation and is often taken by lorry to several events throughout the year.

Shame, ‘cos it looks v. nice! 🙁

As far as I know, that G2 is a rebuilt Buchon (as are all the EADS 109s), and is static only.
