Duxford Me 163B restoration
Rear view of left front fuselage, showing much interior detail and colors. The engine is connected to the airframe at three points: by two mountings on the base plate (3 and 9 o'clock positions) and the support rod at the base of the fuselage. The 2, 4, 8 and 10 o'clock mountings of the base plate carry the pumps and accessoires housing inside the fuselage. The light grey/metalic pump with exhaust visible below the mounting plate is the T-Stoff trubine pump. The left wing flap is down.
