On display at Valiant Air Command Warbird Museum. The Noralpha was built on the design of the Messerschmitt Me-208, of which two prototypes were completed by Société Nationale de Constructions Aéronautiques du Nord (SNCAN) at Les Mureaux in 1944. SNCAN was already building the Messerschmitt Bf 108 Taifun during occupied France in 1942, as production of less important aircraft were shifted out of Germany to bolster fighter production. The Me-208 was a larger version of the Taifun that featured a retractable tricycle undercarriage. This Noralpha built post-war carries the emblem of I./JG 27.
