Nice photos Stitch, fun being part of a restoration crew, isn't it? :)

Are you restoring her to flying condition or for static display?

That Me262 is a restored non-flying aircraft.
It was the pattern aircraft for the construction of 5 new Me262's.
I can't wait to see one of these things at an airshow in the air!

Ripsnort,  I wish we could but we need props and they only company that makes them costs big bucks.  To fly her we need some props and flight control cables.  I've got more pics if you would like to see them.
