Country: | Goodness, I love the Constellation. I wish our modern airliners had those good looks.

Country:  | Well, the 109 in this collection has a very nice history. It was based in Finland, and damage in combat with Soviet fighters. The pilot managed to land on a frozen lake in Norway, but the plane just sited there until the lake de-froze. It sunk and it was only raised again on the 80’s. Sadly, the serial number was impossible to tell, so the doubt remains about wheter it was a LW machine or one those given to the finish air force.
Personally, I don´t like the fact that they went with Marseille’s look in the restauration. It is to well known. I would have liked something more obscure, maybe even the originalpaint-scheme for a 109 serving in Finland around 43. (which Jagdgeschwader would that be?). But that is just me… | |
