This aircraft is preserved at the RAF Museum. The museum's records show air-to-air photos were taken on August 16, 1942 and that is what has been used here. The RAF acquired the aircraft when it made a wheels-up landing at Manston on November 27, 1940, after being shot up in an encounter with a Spitfire. 4101 was repaired using parts from other crashed Bf109s. Flew again February 21, 1941 The canopy was removed to allow a tall Rolls-Royce pilot to fly it and was then mislaid. It was flown without a canopy after that. Photo from: Imperial War Museums
