There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

EN830 NX-X, flown by P/O Bernard Scheidhauer FAFL, 131 "County of Kent" Sqn RAF, captured on Jersey 18th November 1942. His wingman during this flight was the rather better known Henri de Bordas, also FAFL.
Schneidhauer was murdered on 28th March 1944 along with Roger Bushnell after escaping from Stalag Luft III during the Great Escape. http://www.historyinfilm.com/escape/real8.htm
EN830 was scrapped after being damaged beyond repair on 14th August 1944 when the test facility at Echterdingen was bombed by the USAAF.

Actually, did you know the Jugs tried the same thing with a Hurricane MkI, shortly before being invaded by the Hun? The Hurri with a DB601A apparently had better take-off and climb performance than either the normal Hurri or the Bf109e.
Unnecessary to remind anybody that the Bf109 began its career with a Rolls-Royce Kestrel, and finished it with a Rolls-Royce Merlin!
