Cheers BP, you just made me want to watch the film now! (such a classic) :cool:

:grin:dagga dagga dagga dagga dagga dagga dagga, beware the Hun in the Sun....
Love that movie, thank you BigPickle

Wish someone would convert those damned buchons, perfect example of how to take a nice looking aircraft and turn it into one of the ugliest....

if not the ugliest.

it has been done in a couple of cases, problem is getting hold of DB engines in running order (and keeping up with the maintenance demands that come with it), plus the conversion can be a bit of a pain, cos you need not just an engine, but new cowlings, propeller + gov, spinner, supercharger, linkages... basically everything new from the firewall onwards.. quite an expensive game for a plane that wouldn't be genuine anyways. You should really be desperate to have an accurate looking Bf109!


Let's put it in this way: seeing/hearing a genuine DB or BMW engine is a rare, rare occurrence nowadays, and surely one to remember!

we have an original Fw190 at duxford here in the UK, a treat to behold for sure.

Do we? :confused:

Beg your pardon your right, it comes from German Restoration Company.

It's probably been on loan to Flying Ledgends, or has a regular slot.

ah, that one ;)

well yes, it was based in France and came in 2009 for Legends. I remember the excitement and the disappointment since I lost the SD card which contained all the pics I took of it during the airshow :(

This one wasn't a genuine FW btw, it was made by Flugwerk on the original plans and powered by a Chinese copy of a Russian radial engine.

It made an emergency ditching last summer in the Channel after one of the propellers got stuck in feathered position (a problem that had been reported before). The pilot ditched the plane in the sea and came out unharmed, but the plane sank quickly and was considered as scrap because saltwater as you know is the killer for aluminium. The plane was recovered some days after though, since it ditched close to the coast, and the last rumours I heard were that there still is a plan to fix it, but I wouldn't bet much money on it. True shame, let's keep our fingers crossed!

there actually is another Flugwerk replica based in Duxford, but it's only been on static display and never seen it flying.

Ah, this finale and this wonderful music.

The first thing we have to do is replace Goering's Morphine with Heroin and send him off for a nice holiday to get him out of our way then put Molders and Kesselring in charge of the whole thing.

Then dry up the channel since the kriegsmarine is not up to the task of protecting a crossing of the channel.

Then have proper transports to drop off the troops on England's beaches instead of a patched up rag tag collection of modified barges.

Then modify all BF109 so they can fight more than 15 minutes over England.

Then have something else than tactical bombers to do a proper strategic bombing.

Then have all the BF110 replaced by BF109s or something else that doesn't need to be escorted to escort.

Then have a leader that is not a racist fanatic douchebag so that he doesn't call everything off just to attack the russians because they are untermensch lead by the sneaky communist jews. Goering was a fat bastard but on top of him there was worst.

I don't know in what parallel universe this could be something else than an autodestruction war.
