From escaping nazi Germany's persecutions to shooting down German aircraft, including a Me 262. The story of Eric Wells and the Lancaster bomber .

For my first effort back into modelling in many years I thought it best to stick to an OOB build (at least as much as possible). I found this kit at the LHS and have always been keen to do an early 109 – preferably dressed in Spanish Civil War colours.
Having made a start on the kit I found the...
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...
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...
Hello everybody,
I recently stumbled upon this interesting photo of an Me 262 B-1a two-seater. It's code is B3+ZM and it served with KG(j) 54. I don't know much about the details of this particular machine, though i do know that there is a discussion about it in one of the Japo publications...
Hello everybody,
In my 1/72 Academy kit for the Me 262, there are decals for an Me 262 that served in KG(J)54. The profile in the booklet features a white diagonal stripe on this Me 262's fuselage. The stripe also has a thin red border. The profile suggests a base color of RLM 82 with somewhat...

Hello everyone,
This is my Me 262 by Academy. The markings and paint scheme represent "Black 4." This Me 262 served with JG7 and was found abandoned at an airfield in Prague. The decals are mostly from Cutting Edge. I used Tamiya paints, including AS 23(light green), AS 24 (dark green),and AS 5...
Well, some might say it's a Nord N.1002 Pingouin II as it was built in France, but I have been reliably informed that this particular aircraft was first constructed by Messerschmitt in Germany in June 1944, the date 6th August is associated with it, but I'm not sure whether this is its roll out...

Hi Again, more questions about the Messerschmitt Bf 109, this time the E-2. Wikipedia has this to say: "Only very limited numbers of the E-2 variant were built, for which the V20 prototype served as basis. It was armed with two wing mounted, and one engine mounted Motorkanone MG FF cannon, which...
