Evergreen Bf-109 (Ron Olsen photo)

Posted by Rob Mears on Tue Mar 12, 2002 03:28:33 AM

I've just seen pictures of Evergreen's recent Bf-109 restoration on Ron Olsen's website, I'm really impressed with the looks of it! I'm suprised this plane hasn't received any more press than it has.

Someone relate the story of this plane to me. Am I correct in that this plane was one of two(?) being restored in Ft. Collins, CO? If so, what has become of the other airframe?

Also, has the Evergreen machine been restored to airworthy condition? It appears the plan is not to fly it.
