Re: Fake Tail Section and Swastika?

Call me odd-man out! Having owned six Luftwaffe real-deal tail sections representing three a/c types (I'm "down" to four panels at present), and having seen/examined countless others (both cloth and metal, some real and some believed/obviously fake) over many years, in my judgement it's probably OK. Nothing I can see gives 100% proof otherwise. And, no, I do not have any connection to this item or its seller. Looks like a rather typical, composite fabricated, hastily painted, late war example to me - inside and outside. Let the thread continue, I'm sitting down . . .
