Dear Bradenav,
you have a good nose to pick the easy ones!
I know this as the Bronchetti BGM-2 from Italy. I have also seen is mentioned as the BGM-1 and BGM may stand for Bordini, Gianni and Manzolini

Mmmm......quite a curve on the wing leading edge, but I can't quite make out whether or not it's part of the gear.

I'm a James Bond fan and the weekly Bondfest continues chronologically tonight on the telly. It's "Diamonds are Forever" at 2130 hrs my time. If correct, as much as I love you all, you'll be reduced to commercial break time only. LOL

Graeme, you are correct it is the Fieseler Fi 158 V-1 and it was scanned from the April 1960 Issue of the Royal Air Force Flying Review.



You have control (or do you?).

My hands are steady as a rock mate.....hic.....

April 1960 Issue of the Royal Air Force Flying Review.
WOW! I have that issue. One month before I was born....I was just an embyro in the newsagent. Do you call them newsagents over there?

I was also going to ask you, where did the Twin Quad scan come from? Don't tell me if it destroys your source.

Bear with me while I try to remember how my scanner works...
