Original Fw-190 with BMW-801 Engine Starts Up and Takes Off

The One And Only

Eight years ago, the Flying Heritage Collection once owned and maintained the only airworthy and original Focke-Wulf 190 in the world. This Fw 190 was recovered from an overgrown forest near St. Petersburg, Russia, in 1989 – decades before it was restored in the 2010s.

During WWII, this 190 bore the Werknummer 151 227 as part of the JG 54 fighter wing.
