Walkaround of the Messerschmitt Bf-109 E3 (J-355; Werk NummerlFactory Number 2422) exhibited at the Swiss Air Force Museum at Dubendorf Air Base near Zurich, Switzerland. My wife and I visited this museum and although I was more enthusiastic than her I think she appreciated it :) bf-109 antenna isolator Antenna isolator Antenna isolator 20MM FF-K Oe 37 (Flugzeugfliigel-Kanone Oerlikon 1937) Engine radiator flap Exhausts Right landing gear Left landing gear Wheel bay cover Pitot tube Radiator flap indicator

Made my first parachute jump out of an An-2 being operated as a jump plane for a few months in Williamsport, MD. Got some stick time in the airplane too. It was slow and hot inside, and the forward visability was terrible due to constant stream of oil leaking out of the engine, but the big cargo door in the side of the fuselage made it easy to egress for static line and free fall jumpers.
ReplyDeleteInteresting anecdote and the aircraft does not seem comfortable LOL
