It's honestly disgraceful that nobody realized the historic value of these aircraft. If they hadn't been scrapped, they might also be cheap enough that people besides the very, very rich could own and restore warbirds!
Du Glückspilz! Meine Familie und ich waren kürzlich in Europa und verbrachte viel Zeit in Süd-Deutschland, vor allem rund um München und Stuttgart (für BMW und Porsche, natürlich).
Meine Familie kommt aus etwas außerhalb von Stuttgart. Ich mochte die Gegend sehr viel , denn es ist ganz in der Nähe der Porsche-Zentrale in Zuffenhausen .
Geißel der Lüfte (how it's supposed to be, the character restrictions prevent it) means Scourge of the Skies in German. I adopted this name fairly widely (I use it on lots of flying games/sims I play) because as a little kid, my dream was always to be a fighter pilot and an ace. Erich Hartmann...
Isn't that a beautiful plane? I like the German winter camouflage schemes, there's something very pretty about them. This particular plane was used by famous Luftwaffe ace Erich Hartmann, the highest scoring fighter ace of all time (352 confirmed kills), on the Eastern Front. It's a skin made...
I prefer German aircraft over everything else, they are my favorite. U.S. a far-behind second, and British third.
Domestic:
North American P-51D

Focke-Wulf Ta 152H-1
Messerschmitt Me 262A-1
I would most definitely like to own these following cars: Land Rover 110 (now known as the Defender) - indestructible and very useful, a BMW 2002 (not sure what year) - quick and nimble; lots of fun, and a 1965 Corvette Stingray coupe with the 427 - big-block brute force.
Ta 152 H-1 hands down, it may not be the best at low altitudes, but it will maintain that climb rate at high altitudes because of the special modifications to the engine and airframe.
