    BF-109 Metallurgical Quality?

    Hi all! Just a question that’s been on my mind for a while. As I have mentioned in another thread, I love German tanks from WW2. However, I know from research that their armor plate manufacturing for tanks had some pretty bad quality control as well as things like sabotage and the works. One...

    Eduard 1/72 Bf 110C

    I don't really do a lot of Luftwaffe subjects but was persuaded to build this, and I'm glad I did – it's a beautiful kit. This was the Profipack version with colour photo-etch and suchlike, plus I added Brassin resin wheels and the gun nose.

    Luftwaffe "pretzel" camo on Me 262 and He 111

    Hello everyone, Both of these aircraft have squiggles or wave-like lines. On closer look, some of these lines resemble pretzels (at least I think so!). On the Me 262's port wing, which actually appears on the right-hand side of the photo and is facing downward, you can see a few examples of...

    Me 262A-1a Revell 1/72

    Here's my Me 262 A-1a Kit: Revell Scale: 1/72 Replacement parts: the starboard engine is a resin part by CMK. While this part is very nicely detailed, it leaves a sizeable gap at the joint between the engine and wing. To fill in the gap, I used generous amounts of Tamiya putty. After...

    Luftwaffe patrolling invasion ports?

    Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone here could answer a question of mine. During the Battle of Britain, were Luftwaffe fighter and zerstörer units that weren't assigned duties over England instead ordered to patrol over the invasion ports to intercept RAF bombers?

    W.Nr. of unusual Me 262 with white, wavy squiggles

    I found this interesting photo of an Me 262 painted in a camo scheme consisting of rather long, wavy white (or very light blue?)squiggles. It also has a nose cap painted in 3 colors! It's in the book, "Stormbird Colors" by Brett Green and Benjamin Evans on Pg. 37. According to the caption, this...

    WW2 Speed Measurement

    Hi guys, How did Second World War aircraft measure speed? I always assumed the Americans and British would use miles per hour and the Germans use kilometres per hour but I recently read something that suggested airspeed was measured in knots? I'm interested to know - specifically what...
