Re: Fw190 w/ one man PK compartment
I guess they used the connectionpoints for the droptank so it should be possible to jettisoned the pod, but if the PK man was able to use a parachute is another question!

Re: Fw190 w/ one man PK compartment
As stated the picture in the Bodenplatte book was incorrectly identified. The picture came from Stollnberger directly but I think back in 2002/2003 Ron and I simply added 1 + 1 and came to three .....I do not remember that Stollnberger himself made any identification to the picture....I believe my contact with him was back in 1997....

Re: Fw190 w/ one man PK compartment
My mistake. Sure the pilot can jettison it but I was guessing whether the "passenger" can jettison it and the "coffin" opens to land on a parachute like another device - well I think I´m correct... - used to drop spies (Do not remember whether was used by Germans or British...)
