thanks the story of the Fw 190 A3 "blac 3" ( yes that is me in the cockpit ) is that it was salvaged back in the 80`s after it bellylanded in a mountain during the war in Norway..It was partelly restored in Texas..then back to Norway..and again back to USA in 2004 for completion ( at white one foundation )
It will be static and will be displayed in Bodø museum in Norway from january 2010 ( incuded a picture when we flew the Fw 190 back to USA with a C-130..that was a loooong flight from Norway
flying the B-17 was real fun ( and yes..got a direct hit there after the bombsight picture..hehe )
i will post more pictures of the B-17 when it was under restoration if that is of any interest.. just need to scan a "few" paperpics here.. lol
also tons of detailpictures of the Fw 190 if that is of any interst.. just looking thru some more here
the Ar 196 at garber is a nice one i would like tosee restored ( its from Prinz Eugen..and also attached is a never published picture of it taken during the war. its the same aircraft
