B17-G Flying Fortress. - I can fly to germany in it without stopping.

ME-163 Komet - I like to live dangerously.

Desford - you won't have heard of this, because there was only ever 1 in existence, it was a recon plane, a prone pilot test plane, and a bombardier training plane.

It had a double spitfire cockpit, with a twin boom like an ME-110. it also had a plexi-glass nose cone similar to a B-17 but smaller. it was once shot at over ireland because it was mistaken for an ME-110. there is one left in existence and it is in storage, in bits, in a warehouse at Snibston Discovery Park, Coalville, Leicestershire, England. I used to work there, and its a marvelous piece of engineering, and very little info on it. but its been painted silver and yellow for training, green camo for recon, and whatever colour experimental planes get painted for the prone piloting setup as it was to see if prone piloting reduced G-forces on pilots, ready for Jet training.


it also had a hurricane cockpit dial setup. as either reid or sigrist worked with Hawker. Ill try and find an image, but i doubt i will, i lost my research notes along time ago.


R.S.4 Bobsleigh. is its official title, and there is a picture. painted silver

and another painted camo. ONLY one ever made.

A top 3 is difficult and I change my mind on this one regularly (Often depending on what model kit I'm building at the time). At the moment it would be:

De Havilland Mosquito FB VI
Messerschmitt BF109 K-4
Supermarine Spitfire XIV (bubble top)
