Ex-F-BKFA, French AF 196. Displayed on the site of a new "Trago Mills" out-of town shopping centre by entrepreneur Charles Robertson and used as a part of his "anti-crat" campaign, directed at the local planning authority. The sign declares "Messerschmitt-Nord 108, Civilian Development of the Famous German Fighter Messerschmitt 109". Nonsense, of course. Registration cancelled on 24 March 1976 on sale to the USA. (Note that I recorded the c/n as 283 in my log book at the time, but I can't remember where I found that number.)
