A great Utube clip

Also, on the note of there only being one left in the world- There is a rumor that there is a gentlman in Germany who has the hulk of one, sans engines- He is a scrap dealer of some kind……But, hardly anyone has been able to confirm it, let alone get near it- I would love to know exactly where it is-

Its from a post on LSP modelling website I go on,

Heres the link to the page

If that is true then it is great news, The only surviving He219 bit
was part of a stabilizer and tailfin.
Confirmation would be nice, as April first has been behind us
for a month now.;)

Cheers

they’ll get right on it once they’ve finished your TSR-2 I’m sure :dev2:

DAMN RIGHT THEY WILL!!!:diablo:

The one in America is now partly restored & the Fuselage & one engine are on display in the Smithsonians Udvar-Hazy centre. The wing is being worked on & will be mated with the rest upon completion.
The part of the fuselage where the wing was removed still has its original paint on it & the restorers have used this as the template to recreate the paint scheme.
Heres a before artice.

One in the USA IIRC, not restored just in storage, so this would be great to see, one of my favourites as well.

any more detail on the story Yorkie?

I do prefer the Ju-88 personaly 😀 It would be great if another one was found, although how would they have kept it under wraps for so long? Shorely someone would have noticed! Chris
