NO IMAGE This repaint depicts a Messerschmitt Bf 109 E W.Nr.5375 flown by Hptm. Wilhelm Meyerweissflog, Stab/JG53. Meyerweissflog, a 50 year old pilot, was an Administrative Officer who "saw the boys going off" and thought he would like a flip, too. He jumped into his aircraft, flew vaguely in the direction of England and was neatly shot through the petrol tank by a British fighter, believed to have been F/lt. P.C. Hughes of 234 Sqn. Hptm. Meyerweissflog made a forced landing at Monkton farm near St. Nicholas-at-Wade at 15.45 hrs. When apprehended, he had not the slightest idea where he was. To further quote the interrogation report, his start and mission were described as a "very freelance patrol", and his morale as "Good under trying circumstances". Enjoy!
