Thought I would share with everyone a picture a friend of mine in Germany just got. It is a picture of Werner Mölders airplane. What I found so interesting is the tail of the ariplance. Check out the kills painted on it. Around 100. Hope ya injoy the photo. Mike

I have seen some other photos from the album and it is a super photo album. Would love to get my hands on it! One interesting side note. If you look at the picture, you'll see that the tail wheel is in a slot of some sorts. The airplane is sitting on a concrete circle. It seems that the plane is on a giant compass, and it was one way to correct the compass in the airplane. Point the nose of the plane due north and make sure the compass in the plane matched up. At least that is what my friend told me when I asked him about what the plane was sitting on. Sounds like a primative way of doing things! Mike
