Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG
$38
Still the only injection molded, 1/72 scale model of the very first Bf-109. The model features very fine recessed panel lines, many brass PE details, film instruments, very good cockpit, fully enclosed wheel wells and more. Includes four-view paint guide and decals for two different paint schemes for prototype V-1 - Rechlin Test Center D-IABA Autumn 1935 and Summer 1935. Never started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and instructions. Only 15 months after Willy Messerschmitt designed the aircraft, the first Bf-109 (D-IABI) was ready to fly. The pilot was Flugkapitan Hans Knoetzsch. The prototype did not have an automatic retraction mechanism, so Knoetasch had to wind the landing gear up manually. he stayed airborne for 20 minutes and made several circuits of the airfield. In his opinion, the Bf-109 V-1 had perfect handling qualities. The first '109 was born - six months before the Hawker Hurricane and 10 months before the Supermarine Spitfire. The V-1 was fitting with a Rolls-Royce Kestrel V engine that produced 695 hp for take off and a Schwarz two-bladed fixed-pitch wooden propeller.
