This aircraft is painted in very nice Luftwaffe colurs, displaying the "S" of the Jagdgeschwader JG26 'Schlageter', black letter on white shield. Concerning the origin of this aircraft there is some mystery whether it is an original built ME109 or an Hispano built HA.1112M-1-L.The engine exhaust pipes suggest a Merlin engine then a probable spanish origin This photo is copyright © Gerhard Plomitzer, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
