Another candidate for rusty wrecks is this pile of sCRAP from Argentina: http://articulo.mercadolibre.com.ar/MLA-38743482-vendo-trompa-y-cola-de-meserschmit-k200-_JM

A bit of spit and polish and she'll be right! Note the added on tailplane.
Just remember: as one door closes behind you, another slams in your face

Hmmm, what was the tailplane made for? Is (was) it a flying schmitt ? Or was it made for the passenger feet possibly?  :o

Aren't they top-hinged flaps to get to the engine - maybe added when the rear section had rusted too much to be openable?
