Awesome photos, Blackwolf. I would really like to build this aircraft sometime in the future, but in 1/72, and that of the second prototype. This is the first prototype, with the smaller dorsal fin. The second was fitted with a much larger dorsal fin to correct some directional instability. I believe THAT one was scrapped.

Hopefully with the new Udvar F. Hazy center, this will eventually get restored and go on display. (That, along with the only surviving Bv 155. I guy can hope, can’t he?)

I hope to motorize my model, also. After, of course, beefing up my contra-prop gearbox.

Thanks for the info, Blackwolf, and good luck merkin63! [:D][tup]

Thankyou,Blackwolf,more than I could hope for!Perfect.

Wow, and this was going to be “sipmple build” for me. Now I know too much! These are, indeed, an awesome resource- thanks!

No problem fellas, you’re quite welcome…
