Maybe we should add a section describing the reason why it is sometimes called the Me-109 by Americans?
- I would have thought the "Me" designation would have been rather obvious, if not strictly correct (Bf refers to Bayerische Flugzeugwerke, the name of the company when the Bf 109 and Bf 110 were designed). I agree, it does deserve a small section.--Frey 18:55, 28 September 2008 (EDT)
