We have a WWI Biplanes and Triplanes this weekend at the museum. Over 90% of our Bi's and Tri's are taking to the air. Yeahhhhhhh i got in the FW 190. I figure I bust my hump keeping that thing pretty.......it felt so damn cool! Horrido!!!!!!! LOL

Does the pilot really sit that low????

 

[davetheWWIInut]

The seat raises up but not forward. I am only 5ft 6inches, that is why in most of the videos you see.....the pilot is almost always leaning forward. It was cool, got a feeling what Pips Priller, Egon Mayer, or Adolf Galland felt like when they sat in their FW 190's.

You guys could charge $$ just to sit in her. Beautiful!

Na I was in the right place at the right time. As much as I take care of that bird...come on a pic or two inside of her is a dream come true to me except of course to fly her but that is a WETTTTTTTTTTT dream LOL. I am happy with just sitting in her that time. im happy not greedy. Very humble.

We put up the Avenger and Mustang ...now the Mustang which was being flown by the owner was going to were the ME 262 is allowed to be flown in VA. FAA BS keeps the ME 262 around a flight pattern around our Suffolk airfield. Long story short.....Mustang was going to do a photo shoot with the ME 262. I was standing under the supercharger of our B17 Chuckie.

You know I gotta get the 190 against the woods.....seems right. 2 of our heavies, some fighters and lastly the Luftwaffe Hangar. Tomorrow I will get the WWI planes.......I dont really like them but I will.
