I’d forgotten this was the Kindsvater machine. What a transformation!

Also, I hadn’t realised it was so close to completion. What an achievement. Fingers crossed for good weather and a smooth testing programme.

Volvo-powered (built under-license DB605). What a sweet looking machine – I love the color scheme and the unique/rare and period-authentic two seat configuration. Amazing to consider that this was once the US-based/flown (for many years) Harold Kindsvater Buchon.

I should imagine that in addition to the G-12, Hangar 10’s G-6 “Black 8”, also at MeierMotors, should be flying this year.

John, AFAIK the owner wanted the G-12 to be finished first, put the G-6 not really on the back burner, but one step behind. Maybe it has to do with thorough training of (new) 109 pilots? (just my thoughts, but of course I could be totally wrong). BTW they have the Flugwerk 190 finished quite far too (ex.French one).

Another fantastic example of the work done at Meier Motors.

Supremely jealous of anyone lucky enough to get a back seat ride.

Just seen this on the Meier Motors FB page.

Looking very nice indeed!

Congratulations to all at Meier Motors for another great restoration.
