Ikke bare blir Me-262 bygd der, nå får de jammen en FW-190A der også!

The German Focke-Wulf 190 fighter plane shocked its adversaries when it debuted in World War II.
Just getting the one that Everett’s Flying Heritage Collection owns flying again took more than a decade of restoration work. And then they took it apart.
The airplane rotted in a marsh outside of Leningrad from 1943, when pilot Paul Ratz crashed there, until someone found it in 1989. After a Soviet helicopter pulled it out of the muck, the plane traveled to England and then Arizona, where the Flying Heritage Collection had it restored.
