difficult lighting conditions during "Red 7" transfer flight to some airshows in the UK. Neverthless, being able to hide the background in the haze makes one somehow forget that this aircraft type is already 80 years old.
D-FWME 'Rote 7' is currently the only airworthy Daimler Benz powered Bf 109 in Europe. The aircraft has a DB 605A under the cowling, whereas the Buchóns are powered by the Rolls-Royce Merlin 500.
