A real ME-109 at the show? I don't think so.
The Hispano Ha-1112 was built in Spain under license from Messerschmitt.
They were initially powered by Hispano-Suiza engines, later by Rolls Royce
Merlins.

Although technically correct, it's kind of like pointing out that the
Corsairs on the field this year weren't built by Chance-Vought. (I believe
they were built under license by Goodyear.)

Does that make them non-Corsairs?

Whatever, the plane was very, VERY cool. It just oozed evil, kinda like
the last scene in "Raiders of the Lost Ark" where the box containing the Ark
burns the swastika off from within...
