I have the feeling that the undercarriage is simply too short and the wheels are way too small for a 109.

Eh... what?
sniperton got the plane type already, it's a Hawker Hartebeest

Hi!
Guess I found the obvious one: The undercarriage bay of the left wing is of the wrong shape. Shoukd be horseshoe-shaped instead of round. No idea what the other issue might be.
Have a nice day,
Bigmug.

Wow, I really am blind.

Well done Bigmug, that's indeed the obvious part.

So there's just the hidden part left.
Hint: You have to look at self-shadowing plane parts, and you have to look real close and carefully.

... missing hydraulic brake tubes ...?

SAS~Storebror · « **Reply #114 on:** February 10, 2020, 10:20:53 AM »

sniperton mentioned this before, but that's not what I'm talking about.
The hydraulic tubes have been removed to counter the inevitable leaks which would occur over the years otherwise.

What I'm talking about is a similar left/right mismatch like the one Bigmug spotted.

Close but no cigar.
The right picture actually illustrates how some of the inspection plates have been removed to get access to the inner wing structure, probably to counter corrosion. Most likely this has been done by the museum staff themselves.
But that's still not what I was referring to

I know I'm a nasty bugger, and honestly I might not have seen it myself if Piet won't have alerted me of the issue I'm referring to here.
Try again

You're such a tease Mike.....

I love being that

The outer panel on the right wing is fastened with countersunk slot drive screws, that's clearly visible on the 2nd photo.
On the left side the fasteners seem to be different, but the picture lacks detail to be sure about it.
