Claus Colling is the owner. He's building NEW FW-190's - you can buy one for about 550,000 Euros. He invited my brother and I to his factory in Gammelsdorf a couple years ago. Very nice people and very proud (rightfully so) of the beasts they were building...

You want to talk about "beasts"? A few months ago NASM put their Do-335 on display at the Dulles Annex. The size differential between the Anteater and the museum's -190 and AR-234 (which it sits next to) and even the P-47 (which sits caddy-corner) is incredible.

I imagine that if things like the new build -262s and -190s keeps up someone, somewhere, is going to build new -335s, -234s etc. Maybe even a Stuka.
