No exposed cowling there...

Correction:
The Leading edge of the spinner is conical; not very typical on most bombers! (Take the B-17 or Lanc for example)

 

[lesofprimus]

Thats better....

that's a nice pic, it's just a bit of a shame the bombs are sumwhat rusty...........

 

[MichaelHenley]

Arr... A bit of spit an' polish will do the trick...

I didn't think there were very many genuine He-111s left. Most of the ones you see pics of are post-war CASA builds (like many of the 109s).

I think that global warmings pretty bad, with 4 hurricanes in the US in 6 weeks and sun in September in the UK... from what ive heard, it rains there the whole time!

Yeah the last flying He-111 crashed in 2003. Why!?! WHY!?!

 

[evangilder]

That was a real shame too. That one was actually a Casa built model, but it was Franco's personal transport, so it had an amazing history. I had been trying to see that airplane for several years. It was supposed to visit our museum a few years back and had to stay back due to an engine problem. Then I made several trips to Arizona to see it and it was on a tour somewhere else every time. Then it crashed, and unfortunately killed a couple of great CAF members. The loss of the airplane is tragic, but the loss of friends is even worse.

and sun in September in the UK
