Udvar Hazy Me 163 KOMET pictures

I spend much of today at the Udvar Hazy open house and it was terrific.  I thought I would post some pictures I took in case anyone is modeling a couple of the more unusual subjects.  I've barely touched up these photos so if you are REALLY interested, let me know and I can send you the RAW files, or clean them up a bit.

 

Here is the link to my ImageShack folder for the Me 163 .

Enjoy!

I really like the fact that it's NOT restored. Much more authentic. The Flying Heritage & Combat Armor Museum in Everett, WA has a wrecked Zero that you can get very close to, and it's really cool to see it that way!

 

And yes, the wings were plywood.

Bill, when did you take your pictures?  There have been a few changes since then.  I think its time for another visit!  Sorry I can't meet you Sunday but hope to catch up with you sometime when you fly through IAD.  

Best,

Chris
