Me109 is really rare especially with the D-Benz engine. I think there are more running around that are the Spanish variant still running around.

They are really small airframes and you can really see the lineage from the touring Me-108 they were developed from.

I agree

I agree. It is still one of my favorite mornings. Nice hangar, fun people, prepping an airplane we had never flown to go on an adventure.

Thanks Dev. We plan to have it at our Oshkosh booth. Please come by and introduce yourself and I will show it to you personally.

I really enjoy this photo. I still remember how we felt that morning.

A really superior airplane.

I think the series is really getting interesting.

Congradulations on Pork Chopper.

I’m really looking forward to the Airshow episode with David Martin.

Corsair is one of my favorites.

I really think the Navy had a better machine than the Air Force in sticking with radial engines instead of liquid cooling.

The radial engine was really easy to design an increase in power by adding another row of cylinders. The trick was simply getting air for cooling on each cylinder.

Increasing horsepower on a liquid cooled was a different animal.

Richard that is really cool. P-51 is a icon.

I’d really like to know how this performs.

With the high deck behind the cockpit I do wonder if they get low speed rudder blanking during the landing roll.
