V-1 Replica Engine Run

Wed Apr 15, 2015 7:56 am

Folks - attached is a link to MAM's Fighter Factory Facebook page. Replica of a V-1 engine running. They've been working on it in preparations for the May 15-17 airshow. Hope to see everyone there!

I am pretty sure that is the real thing, not a replica.

That is an actual V-1 engine. I remember seeing it in the Fighter Factory hangar on a visit a couple years ago.

A genuine German V-1, or from a JB-2 Loon?

From what the chief mechanic said the tube itself is original but the guts inside are new.

Tickets ordered and hotel reserved. Will be my second warbirds over the beach , first was the rollout of the Mossie and now this.
May even take a flight experience. Hope the 109 is there.
