Snapped this at Chino last month while we were checking out the P-38 gathering and thought some of you may be interested. Looks like good progress is being made and I look forward to seeing it back in the air. The last time I saw this one fly was way back in '89 or '90 if I remember correctly.

Which PoF 109 is closer to flying, the Hispano or the 109G at Valle?


As far as I am aware there are no plans to get the 109G flying.

Any update of the POF HA-1112? As I recall, this 109 had some pretty modified cowlings to make it look more like it's "old sinister self". Last flew during filming of PH right?

Please note that the picture (and this thread) is two years old and does not reflect the current state of either the Buchon nor the Airacomet.

Neither looks much different, but work is being slowly performed.
