fantastic thanks for the drawing. I have always wonder were the factory drawings come from being the war ended 68 years ago. anyway all the information I have is that the spoilers operated when the pilot throttled down past a certain point. they seem a little small to help out very much but they...
hey guys thanks for the lead and a jog to the memory I purchased the 109 gallery and that is the book i was thinking of. it is terrible getting old but I don't want to grow up
I bought the book 109t only shows a couple of drawing of the spoiler. I had hoped for some pictures or more detailed drawing for a unique series of the 109
guys sorry my memory is not what it use to be I think I found the book with the color samples it looks right. it's the right age just not only on the 109 " The Official Monogram Painting Guide to German Aircraft 1935-45" and the pages I have come across I seem to remember. sorry for your time dan
thanks for the quick reply. I have the drawing you are linking to. a larger one of the spoilers and or pictures of the spoilers is what I am really looking for (I should have stated as much in the original post) the spoiler is the main external difference with the 109e besides lengthened wing
I had a book long gone that was about the bf 109 and it had color samples in the back of the book. I would like to try and get the book again but for the life of me I cannot remember the title or author. the book would have been from the mid to late 70's to mid 80's any ideas ? thanks dan
a friend of mine mentioned today he would like to build a rc model of an FW 159 ( he loves fw ) this is the fw entry in flight test that the BF 109 won. i told him i would try and find some drawings. so does anyone know of a location or website for general layout drawings of this aircraft?

the casing of the supercharger looks like a centrifigal instead of a roots type. wouldn't the casing be oblong like a gmc type blower which was a Roots? also they probably mean 2 stage by the fact that the center engine is the first stage and the second would be the...
I am kind of confused now. yes the daimler benz has the intake and super charger on the port side. the jumo series has it on the starboard side but i have not seen to my recollection different compression rations associated with them. would not the inefficency's also effect them as well or did...
does anybody know the reason why on a lot of literature of the daimler benz engines it list one compression ration for the laft cylinder bank and another for the right bank ?
