That 262 looks great.

I hope it goes to a good home.


(Would it be possible to convert her to a flyer, or was she built as static only?)

262 crew,
is this the green nose replica? she looks real good!bill

Looks great! but you need to show off whats under the wings more, or is that in the next post? If so, then I've taught you well ---

This one can never fly! Static only! Yes this was "Green nose".

That is awesome. Are there any leads on where it is heading?

Thanks for posting! I was pleasantly surprised once I opened this thread. I had no idea what it was going to be :)

Great stuff. I wouldn't mind taking a close look at one of those someday!

Cheers,

David

For shame Al :wink: how many times have you been to Paine? I would guess three or four times in the last year?

Thanks for the kind words! I know its not a war bird and I'm sure the whole idea of replica planes pi$$es off some people, my hope is that the replicas bring knowledge and history to life for people who may have never seen one, original or replica!
