And here's an HA-112 'Buchon', a Spanish license-built version of the BF-109. The engine is a Rolls-Royce Merlin, changing the nose shape significantly. A very popular stand-in for the Messerschmitt in film. There's a lot more Rolls motors around than Daimler originals.

Two examples of the BF-109 'G model, one airworthy, one residing in the Smithsonian in DC. They made a bunch of these and they constitute a lot of surviving examples.

The year before I came to the states I visited my dad pretty regularly in the North of England. One Saturday I drove across to the village I lived as a teenager. Didn't appreciate it when I was younger. A lot of memories in that place.

This is Roscoe. He is owned by the barman at my dad's local in the Spanish village he lives in. Roscoe stole my heart (and most of my dinner)
