Re: Aircraft Identification Challenge 199
The body looks like an ME163 but the challenge 'image' has twin props.
I'm struggling to think of it as an ME410 but that is the best I can come up with so far.

True to form, another good poser. Can't make out whether or not it's a nose or tail wheel
There is no paralell in warfare, to such courage and determination in the face of danger, over so long a period. Such devotion, should never be forgotten.

Re: Aircraft Identification Challenge 199
Looks like I was Miles from it and couldn't even take a Minor placing !
