BAD Me109 G-14 restoration.
Here are photos of the botched "Sandy Air" G-14 restoration. Aircraft has fictitious history, and was built sloppy.
1) original G-10/K-4 type wing aluminum over the wheel bay. Those are original late-war skins, designed for the 660x190 wheels. Notice the large kidney opening that was covered by an aluminum sheet. They then attached the smaller kidney bulge for the smaller wheel. What a way to ruin original Me109 aircraft parts. 2) MiG tires 3) Oil Tank cover way too wide 4) Gun bulges the wrong shape. 5) cockpit is SLOPPY. Too many errors to write about. If you are going to do a restoration...even a staic one...why not do it right? One of the worst I have ever seen. The company is really sketchy anyway...too bad. ![]() ![]() ![]() |
