It's all unrealistic crap requested by people who want pie in the sky actions performed without an understanding of how things work and who can't grasp reality.

They also have a Bf 108 that was brought to the US in 1945 and hangered in Seymour Indiana for about a year. The airport is still there and located an hour from my home. They brought most all the captured German planes there after the surrender to test and study. Chopped up hundreds of crates of parts of planes and buried them all over the property. Been digging up stuff there for years, even still today. I have a FW190 prop spinner cap, and piece of a 190 landing gear I found in the woods in 2006.

Anyway, the 108 was a 2 seat 109 and had an orange tail. Its now at Chino and they don't seem to want to sell it.

The 108 was most definitely not a 2 seat 109.

108 wasn't even a fighter much less combat aircraft. It was essentially in dumbed down terms for you, like a Cessna 172

Is that supposed to be a joke Zach? Because you are one of the biggest jokes around here so trying to be funny either comes easy as a result, or you simply can't trump your own persona.

Have you seen a 108 before? I don't think you have. I'm sure however, that you will post a pic of one below to try and give yourself some validity.
