csThor,

How long did the F-1 stay in service with Jg-51?

I remember reading somewhere that the early 'F' models were plagued with problems relating to the tail-section (does something about jammed elevators ring any bells?) which might have led to a brief recall of the type whilst this was amended.

Wasn't Marseilles killed flying an early F model due to a technical fault? Presumably if the fault still existed at that time then an October 1940 'F' Model might have suffered from the same problem which makes me wonder how long it remained active for.
