I myself like this non sensical rambling on without any apparent direction, but that may or no maynot be the case with others that frequent this board. Huh?

Soooo...How long before the thread hijack police shut us down?

Ohh.. I think the on-topic part of this thread petered out long ago... Unless requested, we don't normally squawk about OT stuff...

Draggggggging this even FURTHER (just to see who I can piss off )
I actually like K-Falls.. Kinda easy paced, snow in the winter, not *too* hot in the summer.. A lot like Reno's climate, actually..

It's a little hard to find what you need there when shopping for this and that but a heck of a lot better than Long Beach WA!

I gotta drive something like 80 miles for a decent hardware store!

Re: ME-109 down at airshow in Germany

Yea I like it also. Cant see the air, dont taste the H2O and most of the good guys carry a .45 cause the Sheriff says so. Not much personal assault here. "Hey buddy give me your wallet".....BOOM BOOM. No indictment by the grand jury because they do BOOM BOOM also. Sometimes its 'not' what is here that makes it ok. Long Beach eh. Think I already asked how you got there and you got there for just about the same reason that most guys get to somewhere following some girls going to there.

Re: ME-109 down at airshow in Germany

I just had a bit of a memory flashback this morning...

Wasn't Maloney's new acquisition in 1981 an HA-109, not a BF or ME?(Spanish-built under license by Hispano). I don't know why, but that though just occured to me out of the blue.

Re: ME-109 down at airshow in Germany

Yep it was the Spanish built, Merlin engined version.

Seems to me that a bunch of those Texas types purchased those BFs and spits after having flown them in The Battle of Britan movie.

You mean Buchon Ha:s..this has to be labelled as a new AC ( or 109 derivative ) since the engine layout makes it entirely diffrent AC...albeit an early Bf-109 ( A model ? ) did fly with a R&R Kestrel engine way back then.

here is conversation of the Kestrel variation...

Re: ME-109 down at airshow in Germany

Go off topic all you want! I made it OT since the first post. Great reading!

I don't know if it was oleo stuts or not, but the HA-109 at tillimook sat much lower that the BF-109G-10 at Evergreen. I really thought that was interesting. I still need to download the images from my Kodak Instamatic POS-1000! I'll post if anyone is interested.
