Aftermarket addons: Eduard seat belts, Aeromaster decals, minor scratch built details
I believe this will be the 10th 109 in the GB - sorry about that but I had bought this kit in May with the intention of entering it. I hope to balance the inequity by entering a 2nd model from the British side.I plan this to be a relatively straightforward, virtually OOB build (famous last words)
The scheme will be for 'Black 8', W.Nr. 5338 flown by Bernhard Lampskemper of 2/JG3. On 29 August 1940, Lampskemper took off with his staffel on a mid-afternoon "freie-jagd" and, upon crossing the English coast at a height of 22,000 feet, was bounced by Spitfires and hit in the engine. He managed to glide down to a smooth crash-landing near Pevensey and was captured unhurt despite being shot at from the ground by anti-aircraft guns when he was a few hundred feet off the ground.
If anyone has any more info on the pilot or plane, please post.
