Re: FW190 Longnose unknown part

Hello,

I can only add another wild guess: It seems to me that for retracting the tail wheel or actuating the cockpit hood that gadget would work too slowly. So I suggest it could be a part of the adjusting mechanism of the horizontal stabilizer. The Me 109 had a similar Spindel for that purpose.

Regards,
