yep. that´s Willi, more about him perhabs here: http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/avi...44-a-9055.html (Willi Reschke´s G-?, August 29th,1944) and here Warbird Photo Album - Willi Reschke
the other gentleman is Joe Owsianik, btw mentioned in my siggy, more perhabs here: http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/avi...ears-9298.html (Willi Reschke & Joe Owsianik -meeting after 63 years)
If you have a time, here´s a story of Joe´s last flight: http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/avi...g-11209-2.html (B-17's that took a beating) , go to the page 2,3, 4 and 5.
Willi shot down one of 7 B-17 from 2nd BG, 20thSqdn that on August 29, 1944...who knows, maybe Joe´s machine...

I tried to put there this link:  ,but the result was INVALID FILE...
Then I downloaded the downsized pic you sent and put it there, but it failed again...
Strange...
Maybe here is the problem: Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 500 by 100 pixels or 19.5 KB (whichever is smaller).
