Cool pics! but whats even cooler is the JU-188 BEHIND the me-262!

you can see the rear firing guns mounted on remote controlled barbettes on the side of the fuselage.

I didnt know we had one in the UK.

Hi Hazed

It's a Me410 behind the 262, some pics can be found here, along with the Ki100 http://www.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=73592

They also had a Storch, Ju52, V1, V2, plus some air-to-air WW2 missiles at Cosford. Hendon have a Ju87, Ju88, He111, Bf110, Bf109 x 2, He162.

When I last went to Cosford a couple of years back, they not only had the MK 108s out on display, they also had the nose hatch raised to show the installation of the other two guns. Now that's what a call a good way to display a combat aircraft

Yup. second time for me at Cosford, not as nice as Hendon or Duxford but it's only fair to share the pics of the rarer stuff.
