Preowned, Resealed, Mint

The Messerschmitt Bf 108 Taifun (Typhoon) was a four-seat touring and training aircraft designed by Willy Messerschmitt in the mid-1930s, originally conceived as a high-performance sport plane for the 1934 Challenge de Tourisme Internationale air race. Although overshadowed by its famous sibling the Bf 109, the Taifun was widely used by the Luftwaffe as a communications, liaison, and advanced training aircraft throughout the Second World War. The type also served with numerous other air forces including Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria, Spain, and Switzerland, and Nord Aérocraft produced a licensed version in France as the Nord 1000 Pingouin, which remained in service with the French Air Force and Navy into the 1950s.
