Don’t need to find buried FW-190s, this German company is building new ones:

Check it out. I visited the factory when I was in Germany last and met the owner, Claus Colling, and his lovely wife. They showed my brother and I the FW-190s then in production, and I got to sit in one. Each plane is a combination of authentic parts (tail wheel assemblies, flight instruments, etc.) and new construction...

You don’t suppose we can claim one or two of those for the Smithsonian, as partial payment for war debts?

Very, very, cool.

Sad that they only built/sold 20 190 kits.
