We're going to have restored 109s coming out of our ears

[II./JG27_Rich]

I remember they pulled this one out of the water a few years ago. Keep them coming. There are a couple of F models being restored also

in static conditions perhaps, but don't hold too much hope for airworthy ones..

[Heliopause]

And also a two-seater in the making... interesting!

(It's Buchon D-FMVS receiving a DB 605)

[Sternjaeger]

now that's clever, a two seater means you can train more people, even if the CoG is slightly different of course..

I have heard rumour of a 2 seat Hurricane in the works,

[Sternjaeger]

did they ever make one?

[DD_bongodriver]

a few operators did field mods (I really hope they got full state authority approval or someone here might be a bit upset  ), never a production version.

Ahh how much for a flight in one...

[Sternjaeger]

blimey, open cockpit and 4 HS 20mm, that must have been LOUD!

Don't hold your breath it won't be flying .....Just getting back at Sternjaeger

They are so homely though

 

But we also have these two along with the five others that are flying now..I don't count Buchons..I guess most of them are but you put a DB on them and they're not anymore as far as I'm concerned

Engine is running

 

[MarcoRossolini]

Gah, to be honest I've always regarded twin seater versions of aircraft like the Spit and the like to be a stain on the aircraft... To me it's just a way to ruin the look of a good aircraft...

[II./JG27_Rich]

Yes I think 109 G12s are homely as hell ...But when you think for a second they may be very useful in teaching new pilots how to take off and land them. By new I mean pilots with thousands of hours that are new to the 109.
