Yes yes, call it a Nord 1002 if you want to be picky! Just a sneak preview really as I'm keeping the best pics back for other purposes...
With many thanks to Frank for flying the photo ship and Simon for the less than excellent backseat driving - I think aeroplanes with black crosses on scare the poor chap.
The aircraft is of course available for airshows with impressive pyrotechnic backup and other aircraft in support (e.g. another 108, or a Spitfire...) to put on a spectacular display - PM me for contact details if you'd like to book it.

It's a 6 Staffel/JG51 Me-109 scheme (Pas de Calais, summer 1940), adjusted to suit. It isn't entirely off-the-wall as while there's no evidence of a 108 painted precisely like this, there are photos of other squadrons with hack 108s painted up nearly identically to their 109s.
The details of individual markings such as the stencils and artwork were heavily researched and are, I'm assured, spot-on... the '14' is a randomly chosen number... however those of you familiar with the aircraft in its previous guise of N108J may have seen it as yellow 14 before, albeit in an entirely different splinter camo scheme.
