Me109
The Me109 was displayed at Preseneys, the ford dealership in Sale for a while.
The family still has the injector pump from it and another collector I know say's he has some bits from it. It also toured around with V2 rocket. the photo is the V2 in yarram edit this photo of the bomb came from roland on the Hcvc forum. Last edited by Luke R; 12-03-12 at 12:53.

V1
Interesting to see...
But this one is a V1 not V2. Quote:

V1
Really interesting pics, thanks Luke!
Another small correction - the V1 was powered by a pulse jet, not a rocket. I've interviewed several Spitfire, Mosquito and Typhoon pilots who intercepted these and either shot them down or toppled the gyros by carefully lifting a wing under theirs. In their logbooks they listed the trips as 'anti-diver' patrols. Quote:

They grabbed a Demag half track and a Sd Kf 223 armoured car from Nth Africa . the remains of the Demag were recovered by a friend in 1983 ? from Kaniva in the Mallee . A farmer there had bought it from Hughes trading just after WW2 , he cut in in half and made a crawler tractor out of it . The hull had mine blast holes in it . We found a few 9mm rounds in the hull , down in the dregs I had it stored at my place . The vacuum assist change gear box was still in it . A little swastika stamp on it . Mike

Yarram
Quite an amazing pic of the V1 at Yarram .
Wonder where the blond youth in the foreground is now. He would be about 80 now  It looks like the V1 at Sale is actually flying !
