Bf 109E Airborne!

Seconded! Or Ed Russell’s ‘109E…!

If only she could be got together with Hurricane R4118 and the Booker Spitfire – OK, I know this latter isn’t BoB vintage, but it is still a Mk1. :rolleyes:

It’s not far from where I live, worth taking a trip to see that fly!

I think I speak for many of the people here when I say: “Jammy sod!” :diablo:

I just hope it flies again!

Oooh yes! Now THAT’s nice!! Great to see it finally airborne! 🙂

Seeing as the status of this A/c seemed unclear on the thread about surviving Battle of Britain airframes…I thought I would post this picture that I just stumbled across. Sorry, but I have no idea of the origin of the photo, or whom it belongs…I found it posted on the Hyperscale website.

Hi all, Great job Craig. This is the second 109 that craig has done,Wrk no 1342. Shame she never flew here, would have been great for those of us that worked on her! Something to do with CAA regulations !!!

Steve.

YES! This is great news. A very nice machine and I’m shure she will be the main star at many events in the US!:)

Nice to see the Paul Allen 109 in the air…
The recent thread I mentioned seemed unsure to the aircraft’s status at the moment, so it is a nice surprise to see that she has flown. Just a shame that we didn’t get the privilege of seeing her fly on this side of the pond!!

This is the Paul Allen one – More pictures of her are on WIX here:
