Just got a letter from the Wings of Eagles Discovery Center.
(Old National Warplane Museum)
A full scale model of a HE-162 has been donated to the museum and will be formally
accepted next Friday.
The builder has also created several other full scale Luftwaffe Aircraft models.
(In his back yard!) Really like the 109.

I saw both the He-100 and Natter at Chino a while back. They're totally amazing.

The 109 is in San Diego CA. It is incredible! Truly the best model a/c I have ever seen. The Natter & 163 are great also. I can’t wait to see another one of his creations.

It looks like they're made from wooden stringers and ply covering, judging by the photos.
I want 1, ...or 2 !!

With some changes in construction material, this guy certainly has the skills to make flyable homebuilt replicas...some excellent looking work there.
