• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Skin for Aeroplane Heaven's great Me109E, flown by Ofw Franz Jaenisch, of 3./JG2, Beaumort-le-Roger, Summer 1940 Includes damage textures and a new pilot texture in a grey flying suit and a faded yellow life vest.

The photograh I used indicated the hand applied dappled fuselage paint typical of JG2 through 1940. Oddly, with the the E7 model replacing the earlier E's toward the end of 1940, the dopple finish disapeared, never to be used again.

Franz Jaenish served with 3./J88 in Spain as the wingman for Werner Moelders. His personal "Mickey Mouse" badge was also used in that conflict. Very little biographical information is available about Franz Jaenish, and none of the sources could verify his total victory count. The aircraft depicted by this repaint was his personal mount until 15 October 1940, when it was belly landed on the Isle of Wight by Feldwebel Horst Hellriegel after being shot up by RAF fighters - "much to its proper owner's intense annoyance!"
