Always nice to see those planes nowadays. Seems they are harder and harder to find as the years go on.

You know your a dweeb when you love flight sims so much, you believe you can do it better and go start your own flight sim company.

I think the 109 is a really nice looking plane.  Like the 190 it lacks that certain aesthetic flair that the Spit has in spades, but it's still a very handsome plane. One look at it and you know exactly what it was built for: killing.

Why are most of the 109s I see E-4 or something early. Is there still any late war 109s up and flying?

Another thing is there only one 190 still flying, but it wasn't built during WW2 but many years after?

I'd have a better chance in running into a Dodo Bird in the middle of rush hour, walking down the I-5 with two hookers in tow before I see a useful post from glock89- Ack-Ack

Actually thats the only early 109 still flying, the others being Buchons and Gs.

Theres Black 6, a G2 no longer flying, and a G6 and a G10 which have taken to the air recently, though the G6 is actually a reengined Buchon.

The only flying 190s are modern rebuilds, though there are rumors that a 190D is being rebuilt to flying condition in the US.
