Bf109G-14/AS of Bruno Klostermann

http://www.cptfarrels.com/blog/Bf109G-14AS_Klostermann_1200.jpg
This is the Bf109G-14/AS flown by Bruno Klostermann in the autumn of 1944. Klostermann was a cousin of famous French ace Pierre Clostermann. Klostermann was killed in action on January 14:th, 1945, flying an Erla built Bf109G-10 marked Green 12. This however is clearly a Mtt Regensburg built Bf109G-14/AS.

  1. Hi Anders

    Firstly, what a fantastic website, excellent!

    Regarding Bruno Klostermann, as you say the aircraft should be a G10 but could you tell me, is the colour scheme correct, as I would like to build a 1/48 kit Bf-109G-10 in the Klostermann colours.

    I have seen ather drawings that show his aircraft having a mainly green fuselage with a grey nose cowling, I was not convinced by the green fuselage because in the photo of him on the aircraft you can just make out that there is a lighter colour by the fuselage + marking.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Many thanks
    Greg

  2. Hi! Klostermann flew one or perhaps two Bf109G-14/AS' marked "Green 12" before he was shot down in another Green 12 which from the W.Nr (491 213) is known to have been Erla built.

    The idea of a dark green fuselage must stem from some of the later Erla built G-10's but it wouldn't be correct for Green 12 that I too believe would have been painted in greys.

    As there is no Erla built G-10 in 1/48 perhaps a G-14/AS would be better suited? (Easily converted from the Hasegawa G-10)
