"White 4" (of Uffz. Perez) was the personal aircraft of Hptm. Karl Ebbinghausen (the commander of II./JG 26, hence the killmarks on said aircraft) before it was passed on to 4./JG 26. Having either the Bf 109 E-4/N or the Bf 109 F-0 tested by Stab/JG 51 in October 1940 would be interesting if the campaign engine allowed for such "rewards for outstanding performance".
Maybe someone had better get coding one. I wouldn't bet on a Maddox Games campaign engine any time soon.

I thought it might be, I knew there were two variants going about, sorry about that Moggy.
