Stuka trainer? You lost me there. They used a 190 as a Stuka trainer?


The aircraft in question is a Messerschmitt Bf-108 Taifun
See http://www.warbirdsoverwanaka.co.nz/...sp?id=aircraft.




OK, but i doubt they ever used that as a Stuka trainer either. That's still
considered to be one of the most efficient airplanes ever made and I cringe
to think what would happen if you pointed it straight down for any length
of time!
Mostly the Taifun was used as a liason aircraft. I doubt many were used as
trainers. Mostly they used the FW 44 for that. Come to think if it that
would make a good dive bomber trainer.
