Nice one Bish!  What make is the Meteor?

I think you mean Crown there Toshi Wink. But if he does not mind me jumping in, i think that might be the Tamiya 48th kit which has both the V-1 and Meteor.

I like how you displayed the V1 with Luftwaffe in the background.

looks good! I built that kit when I just needed to have a simple quick built after struggling with a limited run kit. Sometimes simple is good

Really nice job on the V-1. It was hanna Reitsch who fly one of these. She flew it after there had been several fatal accidents. She figured out the issues with it and helped train otehr pilots to fly it.

There is a V-1 on a section of launch ramp at the IWM Duxford.

Yep just finished that one up in tandem with the tamiya 1:48 Gloster Meteor.  Love the camo esp on the 262!  It was a fun and quick build.  I liked it a lot better than the meteor

Hey, has anyone else built this little guy? Cheap and basic but it does look kinda cool in the German section of Max's Comparitive 1/48 Aircraft Museum (which is really just my office). Check it out amongst other WWII weapons from the Dark side. There was actually a manned testing version (but flown by a woman test pilot) during the development of this weapon. Examples of the V-1 at Dayton, Air & Space and the Cosmosphere in Hutchinson, Kansas which is a heck of a museum if you're passing through.
