    I thought it was to secure the hatch?!



    Great start Wayne. Looks like we need to start a Galland gallery as a few members have done his crates on the forum.

    Looking good so far Wayne, a rarer bird(s) that few know of... ) Tis' a pity that if you choose to decal the guages, that they don't give you an additional instument panel without raised guage details & increment marks on it - I always thought guages normally had flat or rounded glass, not lumpy markings - I'm not denergrating your efforts, more the kit companies trying to make you pay for 'improvement' parts.

    No rolling eyes here. Airframes was slightly more than half correct. One wheel was the flap control,four turns to lower them completely. The other wheel did indeed trim the tailplane as described. By turning both together a pilot could compensate for the change in trim caused by lowering (or raising) the flaps. It was a feature admired by British pilots at the R.A.E. who flew the Bf109.
    Cheers
