I thought the nose looked funny...it is still a crying shame all the big Axis airplanes were scrapped.

Wow.....

I just love seeing all those pictures. I noticed one picture with an HE-111 with what looks like a fully swiveling upper turret. When did those come out? I'd never seen one before?

Cheers,

David

I would guess that many of the pics of the derelict planes were taken by allied troops.

One of the best photo topics ever. My favourite? The Bf-110 with the sharkmouth. If anyone, somewhere could put one of these back in the air.... that would make one hell of an airshow!
