Hello chaps. Here's the latest off the bench : Fw 187.

With it is a Fw 190. Don't have to be a genius to find out why I love that eagle on the nose! 8)

Are the Eagle markings authentic? I know I have seen them on your 149... but when where they first used on aircraft if ever?

I agree, they do look nice.

They were used on 9, III/JG.2 during the war. They are quite authentic for the 190, but not so on the 187!
