Me Bf109F details

Joe here are some drawings of the wing root details...

pt2

The wheel wells are different from the G so you have to correct them ..

And some detail for the Tail wheel..

Galland F6/U ....

Wayne I think the U2 is more interesting , with fsuelage 13mm Mg .......

I agree Marco, the one with the cowling guns is more unique.

Wing detail part 2..

wow .. look at this .......






I think that this man like the 109''''''

Galland is talking with Georing hux

I think he's saying "Herr Georing, please don't prosecute Marco yet, the War is not over & we'r anything but beaten, so give him SOME MORE time as he'll build them in THREES I swear on my Iron Cross "

tajba Ray

Goering to hitler: " Herr Galland assures me mein fuhrer zat herr Marco vill start bilting ze 109's in 3's! If not, you may call me "meier".

Let's hope fatso Boering is right this time

Interesting question Iv. This is something we (wingnuts) should all be asking ourselves when roughing up our birds.

Sorry my ignorance but what is monocoque? Is it an alloy metal, aluminium compound?

A metal structure, such as an aircraft, in which the skin absorbs all or most of the stresses to which the body is subjected.

See the metal corrosion...

Generally for the frame and skinning aluminium was used as it is light, strong and cheap. Monocoque is the type of construction. A good example is the Spit and Hurricane at Ta' Qali.

What you are seeing as brownish in photo above is oxidation of the aluminium.

Ok... . so why in every ref always mentioned metal and not aluminium Monocoque


The Messerschmitt Bf 109, often called Me 109, was a German World War II fighter aircraft designed by Willy Messerschmitt and Robert Lusser during the early to mid 1930s.[2] It was one of the first truly modern fighters of the era, including such features as all-metal monocoque construction.....

Yes because aluminium is a metal

Definition of metal - A chemical element, such as iron, copper, aluminium that reflects light and can be shaped, forms positive ions, and is a good conductor of heat and electricity or, an alloy, such as brass or steel, containing one or more of these elements
