Re: USAF Museum Bf109 G10

A museum "by definition" has some standards to aim for. One of the foremost is historical accuracy and the capability to teach people correct things (and not 56% or who knows what).

Some call it "nitpicking", others call it "standards of scholarship"... sue me, but I'll go forever where the latter are respected.

The price to pay will not be reflected in administrative terms but in knowledge terms and the risk is that by following this route, one day a museum will exhibit a "Roman musket" simply because no one will give a damn if it is wrong...

IMHO, of course...
