GMelinn,

Are you still getting these posts? If so, can you contact me offline? I am curious about the current state of the aircraft and where it might be seen.

Here is a feature segment on the Langhurst Stuka replica (currently residing in Maine). The air-to-air shots of the plane in flight really show off how closely it resembles the lines of the original.

I only recently learned that Luftwaffe reenactor Jeff Willoughby of Pennsylvania is working on a 5/8-scale Stuka replica (a bit smaller than the Langhurst Stuka). Here is a link to his excellent website. Lots of photos of the plane under construction and detailed comments on the building materials and methods he is using. Looks like a first-rate effort.
