    Mhux biex immerik imma I don't think that the one on the truck is the same as the one in the other photos. For starters The "Flying Lion" is missing and there is no cowling cover (although it could have been removed). Also, the shape of the number 12 in the second colour profile does not match. I think the first profile is closer, however the 109 on the truck also had what appears to be a red rudder.

    Insomma... tahwida tas-soltu

    Wayne don't trust colour profiles , it's the same aircraft ,the rudder is the shadow in the sun and all the photos from the same source..... cheers

    Ok. Forget the colour profiles (I agree they are not reliable) but I still don't think its the same aircraft. Clearly both of them have been abandoned and captured by the allies, however one is crashed the other isn't (evident from the prop and spinner) don't you agree?

    I love these little engimas study

    Lemme run the images through my software to see what comes out....

    Skyhigh, I think Wayne has a point regarding the '12' as from the picture it looks more similar to the first profile. As to what version of the 109 it is, I am not going into the merit as that is your field of knowledge.

    As for the pictures, if they are all correct, they are different aircraft. The first one seems to have made a wheels up landing judging from the props and as Wayne said the second one has an intact prop. Add to this the first 109 being loading on the truck by the british seems to have the white extending to the cowling area behind the prop, thus making the first profile a stronger option.

    Joe and Wayne as you can see I changed the second photo to this one that is the same one with the lion , because you were right about the prop... mixed inf from the site I borrowed.... but still I think it's the same aircraft in the truck, and Joe about the white ring after the spinner, may be the strong sunlight ....even the number two is the same.....

    I think this picture settles it. Heavy weathering on aircraft does have its place... I mean that Spit looks far far off from being Spit Polished!
