    The guy said he saw a metallic content to the rubber of the tyre but the tyre was off the rim at the time.He was offered two more complete and fitted to tail wheel legs.

    I know the family that own the airfield and have had a couple of guided tours around the airfield which is very well preserved and mostly intact.I always feel a touch of sadness when i travel past as a number of air crew lost their lives in crashes near the road that travels along side the airfield.

    Don,t forget that the 109 held a closed circuit speed record prewar although i think it was a specially prepared aircraft and not a production one.

    As i do volunteer work at a heritage site in the area and was not needed for the bdo it was good that i could come to the museum,also managed to get in some of the cockpits and aircraft that were open.Good luck with the v-force event,planning to revisit again soon. Alan
