this is a replica of Franz Stigler's BF 109 G6. Now if you have read "a higher call" by Adam Makos or have listened to the song "no bullets fly" by sabaton then you know of this air craft and its brave pilot for those of you who dont know, Franz Stigler was a German fighter pilot during world war two and on the 20th of december 1943 he was ordered to shoot down an enemy B-17 Called the "ye olde pub" but when Franz arived in his 109 he disobayed the order when he saw the damage she had sustained he recalls looking at the injured crew members and feeling sorry so he risked exacution to escort the damaged bomber to safer ground his first intention was to get them to land at the german air bases for surrender but due to language barrier and the fact they were enemys ment that franz escorted the bober to safer ground and ut of the fiering ranks as the pub wasnt going to survive another direct hit it was only eunning on 3 engines as the ~3 engine was damaged by flack. so this is my tribute and it dose fly but is difficut to keep up in the air so if someone could help with that i would be greatefull but i also had the problem of the fact that from my resurch there isnt one solid desighn for his 109 the most i know is he was yellow two and had a symbol of a black bare in a red and white shild with a crown on top but the other details are blured and not clear so i went for the esiest thing to build hence i havent included the 109 style motteled green top but i hope you enjoy this this is also my first replica that is so specific so as i said i hope you enjoy flying yellow two as i did building her
