Ehrlers 109
Dan – interesting point about the 189 and Ehrlers 109 being sold off scrap by scrap.
In an earlier ebay post – I noticed a 109 belly pan being sold as a 109 wing section.
At Shoreham – I purchased the other half – which was sold with an Ehrler 109 Yellow 12 Werk No. The owner had sold the other half to the “wing ” man.
The piece I bought was definitely 109 belly. On cleaning it had oil, dirt and some traces of white paint remaining
I conclude that it was/is a piece of a 109 that had crashed. The paint suggests an arctic recovery.
As to it being Ehrlers – possibly as it is Dural and bent it could not be reused in a build. But then again possibly from any other 109 recovered from Russia.
I doubt we will know for sure.
