Jagdgeschwader 27 (JG 27) Afrika Sauberer Stil German Air Force WWII patch

Description

Jagdgeschwader 27 (JG 27)  Afrika -"Sauberer Stil" was a fighter wing of the Luftwaffen during World War II
Messerschmitt Bf 109 E Emil
On the ground the Bf 109 was tricky to handle but in the air it was lethal. Allied designers made their aircraft easy for any novice pilot to handle and as a result where able to throw new pilots into combat at a much faster rate and during the 'Battle of Britain' this is one of many factors that help win the Battle. As pilot loses mounted the Luftwaffe faced more accidents which also took it's toll on materials and resources.
The Bf 109's small rudder was relatively ineffective at controlling the strong swing created by the powerful slipstream of the propeller during the early portion of the takeoff roll, and this sideways drift created disproportionate loads on the wheel opposite to the swing. If the forces imposed were large enough, the pivot point broke and the landing gear leg would collapse outward into its bay. Experienced pilots reported that the swing was easy to control, but some of the less-experienced pilots lost fighters on takeoff.
