Fw 190 D wooden flaps

Hi Pilot

In the Stipdonk/Mayer JG 51 photo-history there is a quite nice photograph of Fw 190 D-9 "White 11" (W.Nr. 213 007) which unlike the JV 44 machine of the same werknummer block, which apparently were sourced from recycled Fw 190 A-8 airframes, clearly shows that this fighter did not have the wooden flaps. So it would seem as if the werknummer block is not necessarily an indicator of the wooden flaps.

Horrido!

Leo
