Post by: oakranger on December 22, 2009, 02:16:17 AM: Has anybody ever heard Finnish having Bf109G-6 that have a shark mouth?

That, and the color profile I found didn't have what I'd call credible colors on it. Then all the G6 slots filled up so I just gave up on it hehehe.

Post by: EskimoJoe on January 17, 2010, 02:47:59 AM: What about Whiteman's? Anyone have information on that 109? Looks good, does it meet the in-game requirements, or does the 109D model not count?

When did they add the 109D?

Post by: Krusty on January 17, 2010, 03:59:21 PM: LOL... 109D skin on a 109E frame? It would be like adding a Gloster Gladiator skin to a Hurricane.

The Emil was leaps ahead of the previous models in everything from horsepower to performance to firepower. No comparison.

Good pic. What year was it and are the crew German or not.
Most likely 1938 or 39 based on the fact that it's a D model. That picture pretty well illustrates why, from a 3D standpoint, you can't do a Dora on an Emil.
