Messerschmitt Bf 109G-14/AS

great looking model John ! ..as its a JG 300 subject I feel bound to add some additional info ..hope you don't mind! 'green 3' was Lt. Willi Trabert 's G-14/AS assigned during late 1944 at Mark Zwuschen when Trabert was Staffelfuehrer of 11./JG 300. His a/c was equipped with a gun camera & the aperture in the port wing leading edge is one detail that I might have added (he says) to this replica - gun cameras were not widely used in the Jagdwaffe being generally reserved only for those pilots likely to bring back some interesting footage. The small G-6 style wing wheel bulges are spot on....as are the lower cowl chin bulges and the deeper oil cooler, seen on late G-14s produced by Messerschmitt only prior to the introduction of the K-4

A very beautiful Bf109 in a beautiful scheme... @ Neil: Is there any conversion set or how does this gun camera and aperture look like?

..would be a very simple addition. Here's a pic of Trabert's a/c that J-Y Lorant sent me from his book;

Hi John Nice build - and thanks Neil, for the extra info. All the best Rowan

Nice looking 109 John. It's also good to see that someone elses workbench is just as messy as mine. Bravo sir, bravo...
