Bomberboy, they were called four motors by the German pilots. Or vier motors.

Whilst to a degree they may have done so in the heat of battle, but I doubt they called them that for their interrogation or report purposes. The scenario “I am claiming a vier motor over Osnabruck” just doesn’t work for me and conversational experience with German people also tells me different
It would be even more problematic when the same is applied to Zwei motors. 🙂

Matthias, I am really enjoying the posts, particularly around the 109’s.
What is the DB supply availability relative to the airframes being worked on? I would expect that there are obviously enough for the airframes themselves, but are there spare engines available as well?

Yes you are – rebuilt to airworthy condition (IIRC) by the Black 6 team then shoved into a museum… 🙁

Which is where she was destined to go even as a flying aircraft anyway. It was sadly ironic that her last flight actually ended in the way it did. It certainly put paid to any chance of her flying on a bit longer, even if there had been an agreed delayed stay of grounding prior to the accident.

I like the look of that very much. compliments to the chef.
There’s something about cat launches…..mmmmmmnice.
