Go 229 Standalones

That looks terrific, John! I still can't get over how much plywood they used in building these, even if they took care to use metal around the Jumo turbojets. :pop4:
 
Yea Tom, I wonder how it would have stood up operationally, just seems like a big fire hazard!
 
Plywood, the original lightweight composite material...

This is particularly terrifying when you consider the quality of the glue that would have been used to hold it all together!:dizzy:

Nice work John!

The same glue was used with others like the He162 Volksjaeger whose wing delaminated mid-flight while displaying in front of Goering. I don’t think the pilot survived.

That looks really good with Ankor’s shaders, the details show really well. :applause:
