Reason:In the course of further development on the Me 109 G, flight tests with MK 108 mockups were to be carried out in accordance with instructions from Prof. Messerschmitt.
 
Test
Procedure:
One test flight each, with and without mockups, was conducted. The values are not converted, since the two short flights took place consecutively and a change of the air state did not take place during the short time dismantling the mockups.

Results:Speed without mockupVw = 326 mph   (525 km/h)
 
 Speed with mockupVw = 322 mpg   (519 km/h)
 
 Speed loss due to mockups ΔV = 4 mph   (6 km/h)
 
 n = 2600 U/min; p – 1,30 ata; B = 717 mm Hg;
 t = 19°C; H = 480 m.

Condition of
the Machine:
Standard production version ME 109 G with GM 1-equipment. Surface specially treated, yet somewhat smoother than Test Report 109 11 L42 shows achieved. Radiators closed; radiator indicator staffs; wing thermometer; Chassis; tail wheel out. Mockups for MK 108 from wood. Implementation and mounting see photo. 2 ETC 50 one behind the other beneath under the fuselage.
 
Process of
Measurements:
Two test flights at combat power n = 2600 RPM, p = 1.30 ata at ground level. Air pressure was measured by altitude recorder on board the machine, temperature at ground.
 
               1.   Flight:   with MK 108 mockup.
               2.   Flight:   without MK 108 mockup.
