When I was in grade school we still use to sing God Save the Queen along with Oh Canada in the morning. Thinking of that makes me feel a little guilty about always flying Messerschmitts lol. My best friend got the strap for washing his hands in cold water and one day I got it for breaking my pencil...harsh.

There's something very wrong with the fin/rudder of the 109 in the second shot of the second set! Any ideas?

All the best.............C

Nothing wrong as far as I can see.. the pilot is applying full rudder.

But the fin doesn't seem to be turned diagonal. It's turned only in the front? Maybe bug, Idk.

I realised that from the shifted position of the horn counterbalance but the rest looked looked strange (probably because of the shadowed yellow of the rudder viewed from almost above). On second look realise I was suffering an optical delusion

. Thanks

Exactly what I thought Hecke but when I looked again and considered the viewpoint I realised that it was an illusion. For sure the rudder is hard left.
