Re: Fw190D-9 at Kitzingen, May 1945

Stig,

I'm not sure, to be honest. Going from two different sites, one that said White 9 was 584584 and one that said it was 585584. Admittedly, I haven't looked into Fw190 production blocks in about 20 years, having been focused on US equipment during that time. I started looking into the German aircraft photos that I've accumulated in my US aircraft photo collection and that opened a bit of a Pandora's Box. As a result, the addiction is now back in full swing.

Apparently 583XXX and 585XXX are Arado Warnemunde-built machines. I'm intrigued as to how these sites found the Werknummern for those birds. The photo I have of White 9 doesn't seem to have the werknummer on the tail cap.
