vppelt68 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Lt. Kyösti Karhila (32,25 kills, of which 21 with Bf 109:s), W/O Ilmari Juutilainen (94/58), Lt. Heimo Lampi (14/8) and Capt. Hans Wind (74,5/36) have a few words about flying the Mersu in combat. The total score number is the latest official claim and the Messerschmitt-score a very quick calculation by yours truly for this post only - so don´t quote it . Oh - I´m about to build Capt. Wind´s last mount in the Interceptor GB, if I only clear my desk from previous engagements! V-P 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise those decals will go to waste and that won't be good value for money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si2 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 (edited) I'm a bit late to the party and I'm not 100% sure of the rules for entry. Can I enter my Bf109e in Japanese hands? Airfix 1:72nd. There is a WIP thread in the WIP area, not sure if that's against the rules. I'll have to read up. OOOPs, I've just seen it's 2021, not 2020. Maybe another time Edited December 8, 2020 by Si2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’ll look like an line of aircraft on a tarmac. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
