she could tell this by the general behavior of the american fighter pilots. If they could not find LW planes would attack wermacht vehicles . If they could not find vehicles would hunt fire brigades and ambulances .After that civilians After that children, then horses,then cows,then dogs ,cats...

Mr GreqP Do you know ,aproximately, what capacity the wing tanks of your spanish 109 had? And it had them in addition of the internal wing guns? Thanks you for sharing your informations

The configuration of 335 may have been useless to America and england but it was very interesting for germany. Germany , because of lack of raw materials,was doomed to lose the engine power race. So it had to use other means to achieve aircrafts with competitive performance. The 335...

Mr Aozora 1)I dont call him liar because i try to follow the forum rules. Plus ,as Lw fan, i must be extra cautious 2) My name is known to the moderators, but what s the point? 3)Did you have the decency to read Mr Kurfust respond article? FULL of evidences 4)So, you and your author, dont...

Mr Shortround6 I dont understand.... Where do we disagree?? I agree that better fuel leads to better output. But it requires major engine changes When i up tuned my FZS 1000Fazer , i turned to 100 octane gasoline. But in order to take advantage from that fuel 1)Changed the pistons and the...

Mr Flyboy J For the history, Hellenic Air force used 3 C-47s until a few years ago But the mechanics i asked were veterans of HAF and members of my aero clumb. They had experience on Harvands, Noratlas, Alpatros, Canadairs( both with the original engines and with the turboprop engines) etc...

German warbirds are extremely rare .They are pieces of the history. They should not take the risk to fly them

Mr Oldsceptic I may have been rude and should have avoided this. But the analysis that you ask has been made by Mr Kurfust with evidences In my opinion it is clear that there are more than human mistakes at that text. I find clear manipulation of evidences, and biased judgement from the...

Mr Aozora The fact that Mr Kurfust has been banned from this forum cancels his great knowledge? His great research? You claim that the author of the article K4vs XIV has done very good work at his site and for free. So has Mr Kurfust at his own site. And never was accused for inaccurancies...

THIS ARTICLE IS FULL OF LIES. iTS WORTHLESS Mr Kurfust has written an article that presents all the lies and manipulations of evidence of the known person that wrote the article that you mention. Mr Kurfust proves that K4 was better than Spit XIV. Find his response on the net to the...

Mr GreqP Nice photos. Thank you for posting them I would like to ask you this. What internal changes has the wing in order to fit the 20mm cannon? Have the spaniash holed the wing s main spar?

Often even engineers disagree between them about what s good. I have read somewhere that when some german enginners saw the spanish 109s with the internal wing cannons critisized the choise for weakening the wing.. Who was correct? Who knows... Mr Greqp Do you believe that there was space...

Personnaly , i dont know if Moelders would be better than galland but certainly could not be worst I wonder what good Galland offered to the Jagdwaffe. Did he influence decisions? Did protect training organisation? Did he influenced fighters evolution or production? Did he request twin stage...

Mr drgondog Uncle Willy ,may have not been stupid but a) it took him 3 years to introduce elementary aerodynamic improvements( tail wheel,streamlined nose, wheel covers) b) It took him 2 years to introduce the tall rudder and erla canopy c) never standarised improvements like the fletner...

They should ask to get back their independence and their freedom, not old flags
