It's a quarter scale one. That's just slightly under 100 inches. It's an old plane that been in my shed for about 12 years. It's a Meister kit and it  was called a fun scale model. Well I'm going to change a lot of things to improve the look.

Don't know how far into it I'm going yet. I'm think a G or an F.  For now I'm just up dating some of the old not user friendly things about the plane.

This one of the wing shows that the former residents like balsa. Going to remove the entire bottom skin and inspect the damage.  Might be easer to build a new wing.

I really like it, Al.

Neat to see in the pictures that you've already started adding scale details like the damage to the wing skins from enemy fighters & ground fire. Wink

Oh my!  A 109.  Not an 'imagination' one like mine, its a real 109.

Glen; good catch wrt JG 54, not many would pick up on that.

I'm gonna follow this thread with interest...go for it Al.

Ok here we go.
The wing is a one piece and is too large to handle so I decided to make it a three piece so the center section can stay with the fuse. Going to cut it between the in board /rad vents and out board flaps,
