How many ‘frontreparaturbetrieb’ (Repair Depots) were entrusted repairing combat damaged or crashed Bf109?

I know ERLA stablished one very important with thousands of labourers in Antwerpen.
There was any other facility for the Bf109?


Thanks
Fran

The website of the "Sgt. Mihajlo Petrovic" YUModelClub gives some interesting insights into Luftwaffe era aircraft and equipment still in Yugoslavia, as well as historical background.

The URL is:

http://www.yumodel.co.yu

Photos and historic details are presented in the History section. This section, besides giving links to the histories and/or photos of specific aircraft and engines, presents the story of the war over Yugoslavia on 6 April 1941. German aircraft and equipment covered are:

* Bf-109 E
* Bf-109 G
* Bf-110 C
* Fw-190 f8
* JUMO 004

There is an article on the Yugoslav Aeronautical Mudseum in Belgrade. This is found by clicking on the Museum section. The museum has an ME 109 G2, a Ju-52 on outdoor display, and a JUMO 004 jet engine in the basement.

The Fw-190 f8 is located in the basement of the Air Force museum in Surcin near Belgrade.

An Me-109 G-10 awaits restoration (location not given).

There are only 2 Me-109's in Yugoslavia. Reference is made that, besides the G-10, another Me-109 is restored at the Air and Space Museum. Thus, this may be the Yugoslav Aeronautical Museum under a different name.

BTW, my diverse aircraft spellings are simply copying them as they were shown on this website.

Regards,
Richard

Note: I wrote the above initially in 2024-2001. There likely have been additions to the site since then that are not noted above.
