Ex Spanish Air Force C4K-169, sold to Spitfire Productions Ltd as G-AWHT. Subsequently registered as N109W and D-FMVS, now registered D-FMGZ and flown as a two-seater with interchangeable Merlin and Daimler-Benz engines.

After a long rebuilt this plane made its first flight on October 5th, 2000. It is owned by Harold Kindsvater and based at the former Castle AFB in California. Even the FAA registry denotes this aircraft as a Messerschmidt ME-109, however, it is clearly a Spanish built Hispano HA-1112. It is wearing nice German Winkel-Dreieck-Strich markings of Jagdgeschwader 27.

Taxiing in after its display at Flying Legends 2011. The paint scheme is inaccurate. The emblem on the nose denotes I./JG 27 "Afrika" and it carries the chevrons of the Geschwaderkommodore under Luftflotte Reich. The victory markings on the rudder are of Oberst Hermann Graf who finished the war with 212 victories, but did not serve in JG 27.

A recent and stunning restoration
