No that's Sigfried and Roy.

Believe it or not I sent in a request to be the skinner for the Emil when it's remodeled. I never got a reply :(

I guess Airmess gets that honor.

But the INSTANT the very INSTANT its out I'll be making some fantastic skins for it. PM me if anybody's curious what skins I'll do.

fyi

Emil and Franz are the pilot / navigator...

'verfranzen', a lw slang term for being lost do to bad navigation..

The 109-F is a Fritz shortened Friedrich... Franz would be in error.

Never heard it be called a Fritz. Everytime I read on something thats talking about a 109F its been called a Franz.

Storch is right...

See here (http://www.gyges.dk/German%20phonetic%20alphabet.pdf)

The Friedrich wasn't referred to as 'Franz', it was either Friedrich or Fritz for short. Of course you can call it anything you want :p A lot of literature, especially on the the web, will refer to the 'Franz', and they would be incorrect.

I just thought I would pass on this piece of useless information...;)
