Extreme Make-Over 1940s style
« on: September 07, 2010, 11:48:44 AM »
70 years ago today my workshop (at left, arrowed) was having major alterations carried out:

The plane was one of my top favourites, a Heinkel He 111:

Another Heinkel design now resides here:

Mine was made by Trojan of Croydon, whose factory was badly damaged by a bomb, probably dropped by another Heinkel He 111.

Funny old world.
