The V-1 in the museum is a replica, the V-2 is genuine.
The Fi-103R IV is one of a handfull in the world. There seems to be a number behind seat. I’m highly interested if this is the c/n.

Impressive list David, to make it even more complete: two really beautiful replica's were inside a smaller storage hall where the Army vehicles and tanks were parked! Fokker G.1A 330 and Fokker C.X 711

Pants! I thought those two must have been around somewhere, & I have never seen the Fokker C.X replica before. Maybe I should have asked someone (although most of the museum staff I spoke to, whilst being extremely friendly, polite & helpful, with excellent English, didn't seem to know too much about aircraft!).

Where exactly was this hall, please? Thanks!

Walking from the museum to the depot you normally take the left way. When taking the right way, you walk by a smaller older building. Has green accents. Left side of the building has few trucks and tanks. Replicas are at the right side of it. Easy to be missed...... Apparently most people seem to think it's a dead end.

Thank you very much - I saw all the tanks parked outside it so just assumed that the building was for them, stupid! I will know for next time, thanks
