[Maximowitz]

So I finally made it up there...

Many thanks to Mick and thanks also to Clinton of the Luftwaffe Experten Message Board for making it even more fun!

Here's some things that few visitors focus on..

 

[Maximowitz]

If anyone wants higher resolution and much bigger pics just pm me with an email addy and I'll send whatever you want.

And yes, that is British Overseas Airways Ju 52 above.

 

[Maximowitz]

Mitsubishi Ki-46. The only one in existence.

...and a V1!

 

[Maximowitz]

There was an Me 410 on display too, but I thought no one would be interested in it here....

nice pictures, but whats that Meteor looking thingy with a turret on its back in the TSR2 pic ???????

 

[Maximowitz]

Ah, that's a Gloster Meteor prototype to experiment with the pilot using the prone position instead of upright in a seat. Research into G-Forces etc..

I have a better photo of it if you are interested?

 

[B-17engineer]

Me-410??? Please.

Great stuff Paul. I was hoping to get to Cosford last weekend (and Duxford today !), but couldn't make it. It looks good now that it's been updated and everything brought inside. Must get there soon. Karl !!!
