Possible to build the Messerschmitt Bf 109 E I/JG 101
Because of to the high engine torque and the small track width of the landing gear, the Bf 109 tended to break out after his tail was raised. The consequence were heavy, mostly deadly Accidents; especially among novice pilots. The I/JG 101 had a quite smart solution for this problem. At the beginning of 1944, two out of service Bf 109 E were equipped with "supports" under their wings to prevent tilting. In addition, the landing gear fairing was removed and the Undercarriage welded together with angle irons. In order to avoid overheating of the engine, the lower engine cowling was removed completely. Of course these machines were not airworthy anymore. According to the flight log, one machine received the TacticalNumber black 8, the other got the number 9. The only known picture shows a quite multicolored camouflage.
Recommendat basekit is the new 1/72 AIRFIX Bf 109 E kit..... but with minor changes every 1/72 scale Bf 109 E kit can be used.
