Simply take pictures of everything...
The Starfighter, the Me 163 replica and some of those WWII aircraft engines would be nice.

Yes, I could use some good reference photos of the Komet.

Yeah, please use these, because the Me 16e shown there is nice, but pretty unphotographable. 1st floor under a roof with little space around and bad conditions. But at least shes in good neighborhood - a Fokker Dr.I stands besides her.
They have five MiG 21, one of them completely torn, as well as a F-104 G - if you need those pictures or others, just PM me.
Not only planes are there, but for example a 1928 Harley, BMW 3.5 Alpina, Auto Union, Fokker Dr. 1 (!) and many many more - too much to list here.
Heres a little best of:
Su 22 Cockpit:
A Bf-109 fuel tank - used as a water spender for decades. Those Germans...
