Me-108

Taken at a recent show in Ireland. Not as sharp as it should have been - came out of nowhere and I just pointed and clicked

Yes, good question that one. Is it some sort of hill or something that you are standing on to take it? I once confused one of those that was static for a Bf-109 display in a photo. It didn't name it and so I thought that the size discreptancy was just the angle of the photo...

Here's one of my Uncle Max with a captured Me108 in, probably Spring of '45.

A little off topic, but my Uncle Max was a Major with the 8th Armored Division, as a liason / recon pilot. He was killed in December '45 when his plane crashed in the Austrian mountains during a snow storm. His body wasn't located until a few years later, having been frozen intact in the cockpit just as he was when he crashed. Buried in Tidioute, PA.

Hi Njaco,

>Definately a Taifun.

Hm, how do you tell? At least the engine is not the original air-cooled inverted V, but a horizontally opposed engine. The Nords mostly had inverted single-row inline engines, I believe.

Regards,

Henning (HoHun)
