Any news on it's former registration??Bart wrote:The Me.108 should be exchanged with a German Museum for the Yak-11 which was pressent at last year's openday. The Me.108 has been used by the FrenchAF, because the engine was French when it arrived at SzolnokAB. The aircraft has been overhauled completely by technicians of SzolnokAB (great job!!) I've heard that it was supposed to get a camo c/s.
I've got this info from a good friend of mine.
In that case, it MIGHT not be a "genuine" Messerschmitt Bf108. First production of the Bf108 was in Germany, but was transferred to occupied France in 1942 where some 100 were built by SNCAN (Nord) at Les Mureaux. After the war, they continued to build the type, but with French engines. They called that the Nord 1000 Pingouin. There were two more versions, both from after the war and with different engines: the Nord 1001 with the Renault 6Q-11 engine and the Nord 1002 with Renault 6Q-10. It is commonly accepted that the only "true" Bf108's were the ones produced by Messerschmitt in Germany before 1942 and the ones produced at SNCAN/Les Mureaux during the war. All later aircraft are, depending on what engine is installed, either Nord 1000, 1001 or 1002.Bart wrote:The Me.108 has been used by the FrenchAF, because the engine was French when it arrived at SzolnokAB.
That would be my guess as well; that one used to be under restoration at the Szolnok museum. They indeed did a good job!Bf.108 is N.1002 269
