Is RF141 a decal option from the kit?

The rumors were right with Manching, but not with the new owner … The statement on the MAC-Homepage mentions EADS, instead of the “Messerschmitt-Stiftung”.

Rumors are, Red 7 has been sold to the “Messerschmitt Stiftung” (who also own Black 2 and FM+BB).
One of the owners decided to leave the project and the remaining people did not have the money to pay him off and finish the restoration. After completion, the plane is said to be transferred to the Manching.

I hope I´m not too curious, but please allow me to dig a little bit deeper:
Restoration to fly, source for spare parts or just standing around?
Thanks anyway.

The quality of the pictures is amazing. OK the wreckage lies only in a depth of 1000ft. and not in the deep sea, but still … Especially the second pic, I cannot believe it was taken underwater.

Talking about this very sketch (- quess the answer on your question will be “no” -), just take a look at the Revell-Kit´s wings … The trailing edge / ailerons doesn´t match at all, right?

The article you mentioned – what means “AE 16”?

There’s a bit on the wings here:
http://www.airwarfareforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=5277 in a plan showing the wings

Bingo! That sketch will do, thanks for the link James. I do not know, if I can build new ailerons, but it´s good to know, just clipping the wings will be a good match …

So the F13’s wing was a strong structure and who knows maybe the RAF replaced the one tested to destruction and it survived to be dumped for exposure tests at the end of its cost effective life.

… or I pretend the old wings were replaced by a brand new set of wide-span-wings and build the kit out of the box. 😀

BTW: There is actually a undated small photo printed in the mentioned “RAF Aircraft …” – it shows the position of the fuselage markings, but nothing more than the wings leading edges …

Hi super sioux,

my reference-article about the F13 quotes three spans – 14,4m, later 14,8m and 17,75m. Initially, only the Floatplanes got the “big wing”, but later all F13 were fittet with it. So maybe we´re talking about the 14,8m-wing.

However, could there be another mistake in the book? If the wings were destroyed in 6.23 by the AEE, how can the plane force-land at Frensham a year later, not to mention Netheravon?

J7232 – Early machine with short span wings, unbalanced rudder and ailerons, assembly at Handley Page, RAE (engine fitted) 7.22-1.23; AEE 6.23; Wing tested to destruction at Farnb. 6.23; RAE 10.23-5.25(…); FL (=Forced landed??), Frensham 7.24; SD Flight Netheravon 6/29 (airborne smoe devt); Fuselage dumped in open for exposure tests …

Are they talking about Revell Germany or Revell USA taking over Airfix?

Hi I have been searching for a number of years for a copy of B-25 Mitchell’s fly in IMC.

For the benefit of the uneducated – WTF is “B-25 Mitchell’s fly in IMC”? :confused:

According to my old RAF Aircraft DA100-DZ999, the batch DG689 to DJ700 was allocated to Avro Ansons. However, there is a gap between DG987 and DJ103. :confused:
