  • FW190 Engine startup, fly and taxing at Breitscheid Airshow 2010.
    This FW190 is a 1:1 new build replica (very close to the the original aircraft, exept the engine).
    The parts came from "Flugwerk" as a kit and "Meier Motors" put it together and made it airworthy.
    These new FW190 replicas were sold with a Russian/Chinese ASh-82 14 cyl. 2000 Horsepower radial engine, which was a good match for the rare BMW801 14 cyl. radial engines at a much lower cost. The replicas were designed with a new 3-blade prop, but one of the first examples crashed from a failure in the electric prop control. The 4-blade was a matched prop from the Tu-2 that was substituted while the problem with the new 3-blade was fixed. The 3-blade prop is now back in use.
    This aircraft is now flying in the USA.

    Full Story on how the Replicas were build:
    14 man-years were needed to collect all necessary data prior to the start of the Fw 190 project in 1996.
    The Focke Wulf factory in Bremen had been captured by British forces in 1945 and many of the original drawings were stored at the IWM (Imperial War Museum) facility at Duxford. At the direction of Herbert Tischler, a former WW2 Luftwaffe apprentice, David Potter, searched through 80+ wooden “tea chests” to sift through the dusty drawings which had last been viewed/inventoried with handwritten notes in 1947. Everything from full-scale blueprints, fabrication and jigging instructions to flight testing notes and office stationery requisition forms was discovered. Approximately 65-70% of the original main- and GA-drawings drawings required to remanufacture a Fw190 were in the collection. The remaining data was retrieved by means of reverse-engineering, where about 3.5 tons of original Fw 190 wreckage was used to get all critical measurements. At the end of the process, about 34.000 (!) hours were spent to complete the documentation. About 80% of the aircraft structures are also electronically documented, using AutoCAD tools.
    The complete aircraft is documented in roughly 8000 individual drawings for the aircraft structures and related systems. This number includes drawings for tools and jigs as well.
    More than 970 tools were manufactured in order to fabricate the structures ( needed to stamp ribs etc.).
    15 jigs were made to precisely assemble all subassemblies and allow the final joining of the fuselage- and wing structures. Setting up the jigs in order to form an assembly-line occupied the space of two tennis courts.
    All hardware conforms to the former German RLM-Standards ( metric ). Even to the point where all countersunk riveting was done with special-made 120° rivets.
    The raw materials are equal to or better in all their physical/mechanical/chemical properties than the wartime steel- or aluminium alloys, due to the shortage of strategic alloying ingredients in war-time Germany. No-one should consider flying on an original WWII Fw 190 wing spar, as these are made of inferior materials!
    Flug Werk GmbH built thirteen Fw 190 aircraft. The proof-of-concept prototype ( the very first airframe ) went on to become the main-display-item in a Hannover museum. Another “Shortnose” is with the German Luftwaffe Museum in Berlin, which also received a complete wing to supplement their Fw 190 D 9 project. The last two airframes ( Manufacturing Nos. 11 and 12 ) conform to Fw 190 D9/N standards.
    The complete structure, the flight control system, as well as the landing gear system can be considered 98% true to the original.
    A major task was to fit a proper engine to the airframe. The only worthy substitute for the original BMW 801 is the Russian-designed “Asch 82 T” engine. This powerplant is almost identical to the BMW. It has the same weight, diameter, length, swept volume and is also direct fuel-injected. It has about 200 hp more available at the disposal of the pilot than the BMW 801 D ( @ 1760 hp ). Nevertheless, it is not a copy of the German engine, since it is a technological brainchild of the “Wright Cyclone” in contrast the “P&W Wasp”, being the design-ancestor to the “BMW 801” engine development. Only the fuel-injection seems to have some, assumingly “unwanted”, but obvious German design influence. Yet it is the perfect match for the Fw 190 airframe.
    All aspects of the engine-installation were precalculated and proven in theory, such as cooling airflow, the efficiency of the cooling-fan, oil-cooling and a stress-analysis of the newly designed engine mount, by a very skilled stress-analyst and a designer-engineer of the University of Munich’s aeronautical branch.
    A complete exhaust system needed to be designed, following the original BMW’s confinements. It comprises of 14 individually formed exhaust stacks.
    A computer-animated wind-tunnel analysis was performed in order to define the position of the oil cooler, which is located in the position of the two machine-guns just ahead of the windshield.
    A complete stress-report and analysis were performed on the main landing gear legs and its oleo-dampening system as well.
    Even the electrically operated gear-uplocks were replicated down to the most minute item. The same company that provided the cyclo-type gearboxes for the retraction of the landing gear during WWII, supplied the same -yet more rugged- reduction drives for the new Fw 190’s.
    An original canopy was retrieved from the lake-bed of “Lake Constanz” and was used to manufacture the plug for heat-forming the new acrylic canopies. Both canopy styles were available, the drawn ( A5 to A8 ) and the blown ( F8 / D9 ) style hoods. Since the Fw 190 is a high-performance aircraft, even by today's’ standards, the windshield has kept its original thickness of 50 mm, in order to protect the pilot from any flying creatures which might get in the way of the “Würger”.
    The paint is made by the once original war-time paint manufacturer “Warnecke und Böhm”, albeit with modern ingredients, now being epoxy/acryl-based enamels. The company invested a great amount of research and development in order to be able to supply all needed RLM colour-shades in the correct gloss and pigment-count.
    The three-bladed propeller was specially manufactured by “MT-Propeller” in Straubing / Germany. The blades are an exact copy of the wooden blades, destined for the Fw 190 A 10 - a “hopped up” version, with the BMW 801 TJ engine of 2000 hp and thus exactly matching the higher output of the Asch 82 motor.
    All of the Fw 190 drawings, jigs, molds and tooling used by Flug Werk is now owned by Gosshawk Unlimited in the United States. Gosshawk Unlimited are currently completing a BMW 801 powered Fw190F-8 for the Collings Foundation and were responsible for the restoration of the Flying Heritage Collection’s Fw190A-5.
    All in all, it can be stated that the Flug Werk Fw 190 A8/N, as well as the Fw 190 D9/N, are exact copies of the Fw 190 “Würger / Butcher Bird” and after mastering a seemingly endless -and quite discouraging at times- list of tasks, hurdles and setbacks, the firm reproduced one of the most important and the first true multi-role fighter of German WWII aviation. The Flug Werk Fw 190 shall serve as a living example of the once rich and cutting-edge German aviation industry and also keep a living memory of the brave men, who fought in this flying war-horse until the very last hours of an ill-fated war

      +PaddyPatrone Are you sure about Herb Tischler's involvement with Flugwerk? Tischer was very involved with the replica Me-262s until there was a dispute with the sponsor organization. He moved on to build a series of Oscars. Flugwerk had much of the design and construction performed in Romania,. with a lot of reverse engineering to replace missing drawings. Their product is not an exact specification copy. They engineered larger fuel tanks made of metal instead the original rubber fuel bladders. The eliminated all hard points for original weapons, probably to comply with manufacturing laws. No armor. So the replica is not as strong as a wartime example. They never fully solved the oil cooling, with customers now placing oil coolers inside the wings with inlet ports on the leading edge for airflow. So the Flugwerk replicas are a good product but far from being an original Fw-190. Customers received an empty airplane shell and an engine, and followed original Fw-190 manuals to complete their airplane or customize as much as they wanted.

    They don't have the graceful, almost female lines of a Spitfire, but every line seems to fall right into place. A strong, purposeful, eye-catching design.

    I remember my grand dad telling me about this plane when I was a kid. He was a gunner on a B-24. He was wounded by an attack by one of these FW-190s over Holland in 1943. He lost three of his fingers on his right hand. They feared the FW-190 cause of the 4 20mm cannons they had that could rip a bomber in two with one pass. Hsaid the German pilots were very brave cause they would come in close and he also said they were very good pilots. This is my favorite WW2 fighter behind the P-51D Mustang.

      My dad (Francis X.) was in the 95th Bomb Group in WW2 flying B-17s out of Horham. He was on the first raid of the Bremen factory where they produced the FW-190. If you know history, the USAF got their butts beat badly trom the FW -190s and their 20 MM cannons using frontal assult. My dad talked about the Bremen raid and the Luftwaffe alot. During the raid, the top turrent gunner took a direct hit and my dad (waist gunner) had to remove him and try to save him. (Gave him a shot of morphene.) He died after they got back to base.
      In the NBC War film "All the Fine Young Men" at the 2:13 mark there is video of the ground crew unloading the injured gunner from the B - 17 at Horham and my dad in his flying gear watching them. If you look closely, you can see blood splatter on my dads face and jacket.

He was hit in his engine by the Russians in '45 close to Berlin and was able to bail out. his favorite Focke Wulf was the D version with liquid cooled V12 so he was finally able to go flat out without overheating

    The thinking at Focke-Wulf when designing 190 was not to make a finicky "Race Horse" such as the BF-109 or Spitfire but a reliable Dienstferd! An easily maintained in the field ... "Calvary Horse" wisdom I learned watching Greg's Channel

      I think both the Fw 190 and the P-47 have a lot in common: heavily armed (Fw 190 A-8 was armed with 4 x 20 mm cannons and 2 x 13 mm machine guns; the Jug was armed with 8 x .50 caliber machine guns), ruggedly built, radial-powered and versatile (both planes were used as ground attack and fighter-bombers.) And the wide tracked landing gear looks great on the both of them.

      ***** The air cooled radial engine had a

      but if your radiator got shot up-guess what?
      You better find a place to make a emergency landing, or bail out, cause with no engine-you ain't going very far. The air cooled radial could keep going, even if you had a piston or 2 kncocked out, it could still get you home.
      They could take a lot of punishment.
      The FW190 was a better design than the ME109
      I don't think Britain had any air cooled radial

      ***** Britain produced a number of radial engines. Probably the most numerous and significant was the Bristol Hercules. The was class competitive with the R2600 and versions of 1300 - 1800 hp were made. They powered mostly Bristol Beaufighters (twin night fighter and strike aircraft - about 6000 built) Handley Page Halifaxes - about half of them. Shorts Stirlings (both 4 engined heavy bombers) and Vickers Wellingtons - about half again. There were also about 300 Avro Lancasters fitted with Hercs as well, but not so many as Packard merlins were available later on. Before this there was the Pegasus of about 1000hp comparable with the 1830 twin wasp and 1820 cyclone. This was used in Hampdens, wellingtons and Sunderland flying boats to name a few. Not so famous as the RR Merlin and Griffon, but very valuable to the war effort none the less. The came the centaurus which was a massive sleeve valve radial of up to 2800 hp in some variants that was used in the Tempest 11 and Sea Fury fighters and a few other post war aircraft, but too late to see war service.
