WIP: Flight Replicas Me.163 Komet

I love the FHC...Aside from the Me-163, they also have the manned Fi 103R (V-1e) which was piloted by Hanna Reitsch. They most recently accquired a V-2 rocket which is on display in the vertical with exposed plexiglass panels which allow a view to the interior. Very rare. Living just a few miles away I've visited many times. If you get a chance to come to a fly day, especially the Paine Field Aviation Day, it's worth it, as the price of admission allows entry to both the FHC and the HFF (Historic Flight Foundation) on the other side of RWY 16/34. Another great museum full of flyable vintage aircraft. Hopefully the Mig-29 will be back on display as a few weeks ago it burst a tire on landing and was not available for viewing as the maintenance is done in another hangar, unlike the warbirds, which are done on site in the museum while visitors are patronizing.
 
Hello Mike and Bernt,
<o:p> </o:p>
Does your attention to the Me-262 and 163 mean you want to focus to a certain extent on late-war German (jet) aircraft? You can count me in as a customer! As far as I know, four more of those aircraft actually flew: He-162, Ar-234, Go-229 and Bachem Natter (although the Natter only made one unsuccessful manned flight I think). So, flight test information could be (and for the He-162 is) available.
