The landing gear covers has been dismantled.
According to the paint scheme, I think are late G variants.

Hi von thoma...

The second aircraft of the row seems to have larger wheel tyres....

Which are the external differences between Bf 109G-10 and Bf 109K-4 ?? :?
I think that the main external difference are the covers for the main wheels but in these fighters all landing gear covers has beed dismantled....as von thoma noted

the two most distant 109 may have a different (wider and shorter) engine air intake than the second 109.
Prop blades and engine oil cooler at first 109 look smaller than on the other three
Ring antenna mount on #2 indicates 109K, on 109G it should be closer to cockpit

Deniss is right, radio equipment ring antenna in second aircraft appears very backwar ( Barely visible ).
The ring and the covers of landing gears are the better way for ID K series.
The second aircraft is different, and have dark camouflage colours, and appears to have a different propeller.

Thanks, Dennis and von thoma.

So, Bf 109G-10 and an Bf 109K (the second one), therefore

Hi all, can anyone help identify this plane, supposedly this photo was taken in early 1941 shortly after occupation of Guernsey on Guernsey airport, after loads of searching I believe it to be a Klemm Kl 151, but according to sources only one was ever made, and in September 1942, any experts out there recognise

Many thanks, Tom.

F is more likely in my opinion, F-1 or F-2 as the C3 fuel triangle points to these versions. + width of prop blades and engine air intake + missing air scoops for spark plug cooling.

What twin-engined aircraft is it that is seen being hunted at 27:41? It's supposed to be German, but it looks more like a de Haviland Mosquito to me.

However, the Me-410 has a low-wing design. This aircraft seems to be mid-wing, with an ample belly.
