Hi,
this beautiful and fully authentic restoration was carried out by
AREA for the
Italian Air Force Museum at
Vigna di Valle, and the aircraft currently graces the
Speyer Technikmuseum.
Bf109G4 W.Nr.19310 was built at
WNF and carried the
Stkz. BH+XN. Assigned to
4./J.G.52, it was downed over the Black Sea while being flown by Oblt. von Coester on 20 March 1943 approximately 20 km southeast of Anapa. Recovered by a Russian team in 1987, substantial work had to be undertaken by the
AREA team to restore the aircraft as no anti-corrosion materials were on hand to protect the exposed airframe once retrieved from the sea...Details information

My skin to the Bf109G4 W.Nr. 19310 "Nesth?kchen" find it
here.
Best regards,
R.
