My cousin Denny, who, after completing his quota of 25 missions over Germany as Navigator in a B-17, went AWOL to avoid the pressure to reup. He came home to Iowa, started a used car business, and actually owned one of these little beasts. I was too young to ask why he would want a Messerschmitt after having escaped being shot down by planes made by the same company. But I did notice that they sure looked like modified fuselages.
I'm certain this is a scene from an old Doctor Who episode, but i can't seem to find it at the moment.
