Yeah, but only two were built by Heinkel, and this is the only one that flew. it never made it to production. Unlike the PAris jet

Small world - the seller's name is Lawrence Matt with an 847 (Chicago suburbs) area code. Bet it's the same Larry Matt I remember who had an ex-Belgian Spitfire in a crate over at Earl Reinert's place!

Must be! I wonder what happened to his last HA-1112? He had it in his back yard when I saw it. He had traded or sold his Spitfire to Rudy Frasca by then as I recall. This would have been about 1986.

Hi all - My father is Larry Matt and yes he still has the Potez - Heinkel - Spit is gone as is the ME109 (we grew up with both in our backyard just outside Chicago). At 82 years old he had the great pleasure of seeing his Potez fly recently (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1mJQNgmMyI) after many years of hard work! Congrats to my Dad! I wish I could have been there with him and seen his face when this jet took flight.

Thanks dmatt! Much better looking than the Paris jet in my opinion.

Does your dad have any info on the Me-109s (HA-1112s)? I'm trying to figure out which one was the last one at the Polidori place. I remember sitting in it and I took photos but I can't figure out the identification so I can research where it is now.

Thanks,

WOW! Thank you very much for posting that amazing footage! Incredible to see it fly

Hi dmatt, do you happen to know which Spitfire your dad had, i.e. the mark and serial number? Thanks, nice looking Potez-Heinkel by the way.
