Re: Messerschmitt Me 209V5/6 (A-1/2)

Thanks Jaap, sometimes people just need to point you in the right direction.

Warplanes of the Third Reich, by William Greene
German Aircraft Interiors (Vol.1), by Ken Merrick
Die Deutsche Luftrüstung (Vol.3), by Heinz Nowarra
Willy Messerschmitt Pioneer of Aviation Design*, by Ebert/Kaiser/Peters

Found on the net that Me 262 Vol.1, by Smith/Creek features the wings on p. 86 (supposedly with wrong caption).

Best drawings I found were from Model Art Special No. 408 Messerschmitt Bf 109F.

Found a set of linedrawings that were from Messerschmitt "O-Nine" Gallery, by Hitchcock (which I do not have).

Just like the Glenn Martin Mod. 139 I find myself strangely attracted to this rare bird.

Would love to find out more about her.

Looks like Monogram has presented most details to date.

Thanks again, all tips appreciated!
