Country:  | Or if you cant chose, you can always buy a jet engine from a craft shop or something and put it on your bike, then you can imagine youre flying a 262!

| My God... What a beautiful bird. I bet she flies like a dream. The Germans... Truly artists of an unforgiving art at that time. I'll buy 'er... but only if the 30mm's come with it. 
The Air Force Museum at Wright Patterson AFB in Dayton OH has one but to see one that actually flies..... Speechless.... | |
