The pleasure of meeting you guys was all on our side :). I had a great time at the ILA and in Gatow (despite the modern technics trying to keep us from communicating - i never got those messages). I hope we can do that again in two years for the ILA 2008.

Oh, and BTW, ILA was a record visitor wise: 250,000 visitors in 6 days, thats 25% more then 2004!


As for those drinks..... i had promised ;), and youre very welcome. Thank YOU for your Winter War present!

I wonder who painted the 109 and 262. The camo scheme seems, well, not historical. Or maybe it is supposed to look non-historical?



"i wonder how fast that 262 could go if they didn't cripple it with the replaica inlets & plumbed it for "re-light""

It would go very fast indeed. But not under control. :D
