You know what? Now I am, too!

Thanks again for everything you do to share the work at Meier's, Matthias! Every update from you makes me smile and gasp at the work being carried out.

Thank you for posting the updates Matthias. Great pics as always.

BTW to those that did not notice: The Bf 109 G-12 will not get a Daimler-Benz. She´ll get a VOLVO ! To be exact, a Trollhättan Flygmotor Sverige. Hope she doesn´t mind.....

(well, a license made DB 605 anyway). Pic taken from MeierMotors homepage, copyright by them / Matthias Dorst.

some small updates concerning the magnificent Messerschmitt Bf109 E-1 6*88 belonging to Robs Lamplough - the project is coming good along

One of the new pojects in the shop. The Fiat G.59 was delivered from Australia to a German owner nearby the airfield. The G.59 is well known and was restored at Saunders Aeronautics 1984-1987. Later it flew in Australia as "Ciao Bella" coded VH-LIZ with look-alike -WW2 livery and later a single seater. The beauty will be restored back to the livery the Italien Airforce flew with. Really a beautiful aircraft, but some work to do

Merlin engine - italien service with FIAT ...... maybe a mechanic from Maranello helped

..... hope so

fresh painted wing. Ralf is painting the whole thing panel for panel to get a perfect surface without different shades. It works, but a lot of work

wing underside - pretty good shape

the team washed away the old paint with corrosives - and then they used their muscles

after that the fuselage was wrapped to avoid damage - time for the complete new electrical system/wiring

last Friday the underseide of the wing was painted in the new livery

Can't wait to see that Fiat on its legs! Should be a pretty sight.

And yes, thanks for the updates! :drink3:

The pictures are very much appreciated. The level of work is amazing. The level of difficulty is breath taking. Somehow the projects get done quickly and leave with wings and ready to fly. Is this the new #1 restoration shop in the world?

the beautiful DeHavilland Dh.104 Dove D-INKA gets a small service for the upcoming airshow-season April 2016

April 2016

Hawker SeaFury D-CACE - a lot of detailwork left ...... I love my red beauty and hope for the first runs soon
