Major Rudolf Sinner, in the final months of the war. A 37- kill ace who had previously seen action with JGs 27 and 54, Sinner was seriously wounded when his Me 262 was jumped by USAAF P-51Ds while taking off from Rechlinon April 4 ,1945.
This reproduction of the Me 262 features highly detailed inlet and exhaust nacelles. Four cannon ports are detailed on the upper side of the nose with associated shell-casing ejection ports molded underneath. When configured for ground display, exceptional detail can also be seen inside the wheel wells. Corgi's 262 series includes the single-seat A-model and the two-seat B-model. A hand painted pilot figure wearing the typical German fighter pilot uniform, with black leather helmet and jacket and gray pants, completes this model.
