Flugwerk FW-190A8/N Takes Flight

Exceptional photo essay of a Flugwerk Fw190 being built by GossHawk. (It will be an interesting exercise by the experts on this forum to compare the creation of this close reproduction to the original aircraft.)

Sad to say, everything in front of the firewall and wing looks crap to me. Rudy Frasca's Fw 190 with the Pratt & Whitney R-2800 engine looks a lot better but it's not totaly correct either.

Wow, sure is strange looking. Perhaps we should call it an La-190

Something odd about the lower wheel spats as well.
