Looks like an A-9. It's got the Gruppe Badge of III/JG11.
I'm pretty sure it's a Flugwerke reproduction.

Thrila is going into the Royal Navy?  He can say goodbye to all that hair.  The Navy will want him to be low drag, high speed from head to toe.

(Original post had it as joining the RAF. Sorry.  No offense to the RAF.)

By all means offend the RAF, they wouldn't bloody take me! :D

I think my favourite aircraft were the piper cubs, they were a treat to watch.

The Brits don't have sunscreen because they don't have enough sunny days to need it.  Sorry couldn't help myself.  Beautiful shots gentlemen.

Amazing pictures Gwurzel :aok :aok

I think the Korean war prop cv bomber is a douglas skyraider. It looks almost like a 50's jet with a prop. Those and the seafury and I think f8 showed another generation of prop planes after ww2.

I wish I wasnt scowling like that in the group photo but Bruv's girlfirend wasnt used to the camera and  I am an inpatient git :lol

Anyway it was great to meet everyone.

Ive bought some pedals now and am defintely going to fly the Tiger moth next year Gwurzwel    :x
