I was actually wanting to build an allied aircraft for once for this GB but i couldn't find one at the price i wanted. So by luck i found this 1/48 Airfix Bf109 E4 kit for £10 including three new enamel paints and a bottle of glue. Bargin!
The aircraft i intend to do took part in the Battle of Britain. It was piloted by Unteroffizier Ernst Poschenrieder whilst being based with 7./JG53 at Le Touquet-Etaples in France. He was shot down, and crash landed at Broom Hill in Kent on 30th September 1940.
I wanted to do a 'yellow nosed' Bf109 purely because they look colourful and there is a line in the Battle of Britain film saying, "Yellow nosed b'stards coming down now". Always loved this film from the first time i saw it. A modern version would be greatly welcome with today's standards of special effects.
