It is a 108! i saw it in "mosquito sqdn" and "633 sqdn", and further to that
it was in a flypast issue magaizine (dont ask me which one because it was a
few years ago!!).
But it is a Bf108!!

said, the chances of getting a REAL russian plane for the film would
be
pretty slim!
"Ice Station Zero" - a flight of four (?) MiG-21 models turns into a
real Phantom as it overflies the submarine.
I have a photo from 1981, holding that MiG 21 model (there was actually
only
one - the flight of four was only a flight of one, copied several times).
Its
quite large, perhaps 30" long or a bit more. The original model is in a
storeroom today in the San Diego Aerospace Museum.
Also didn't Donald
Pleasence get shot after James Gardner crashed theirs in 'The Great
Escape'?
I thought that was a Bucker Bu181 Bestmann (or a derivative), but I
might be wrong.
As Captain Tenneal would say, "Well, you're wrong." (Sticking my neck
out
here) I think its a 108. Dern few Bestmanns around. Anyone know for
sure?
