When I was a kid in the sixties my Dad was in the military and we were stationed in Europe for a couple of years. A good friend of ours was a German Officer who flew a Fw190 during the war. One day my brother and I were dog-fighting with our model planes. When he saw us he walk up saying "no,no,no" and proceeded for the next 30 minutes to instruct us in the proper way to shoot down another aircraft. I wish he could have seen this restoration flying.
Haha what a fantastic story. I wish id had similar experience but i used to get hourly talks from our neighbour who we called 'boring' Ken. He worked for the gas company and would go on for hours about his job , i used to make a quick exit when he came over because he was the most boring man alive.
When I was a kid in the 1960s I went over my friend's house from school. He was a tall, blonde young boy and his father he said flew Me 109s and I saw that he had an eye patch.
Its all about the sound!!!! This is what troops on the ground heard in the 1944 when one of these buzzed over. The sound connects you to history!!! Incredible flying, incredible camera work. Thanks, that was a real treat!!!!
Well mostly, the engine is actually a Soviet Shvetzov ASh-82 used in various VVS aircraft, not the original BMW 801. So troops would certainly have heard this on the ground but rather when an La-5 or something buzzed over. :) To be fair it probably doesn't sound too dissimilar to an original FW-190 and it is a great sound. :)
@@Strakin I'm not finding any evidence of that, the 801 is an evolution the BMW 132 (an improved version of a Pratt & Whitney Hornet and only a single row radial which BMW then used to design the two-row 139) and culmination of the 139 and the two-row Bramo 329. The Shvetsov ASh-82/M-82 is a development of the M-62, a licensed version of the Wright Cyclone. The only roots I see are that they are both radials.
Yes, you are right. I had wrong informations, i once read an article about the flugwerk fw190 where it was stated that the Shvetsov was based on the BMW. This was not right. @@InVacuo
Absolutely fantastic to see a FW190 back in the sky, always loved WW2 era German aircraft, the FW's and ME109's are especially my favourites, nice to see these warbirds flying as friends and not enemies! Keep up the good work guys!
@@ertwanderyep, because somehow BMW does not remember that they actually did build engines in ww2 and did not help putting an 801 together... so they went with the Russian engine
When the FW 190 first made it's appearance a new poster was produced by the British War Ministry. It featured an FW 190 with the caption, " Who's afraid of the big bad Wulf ? " At one Bomber Command station, a wag added " Sign here " on the poster. The whole bomber squadron signed it. 'Nuff said. Flugwerk did an amazing job on this build !
It didn't matter what the aircraft was in conflict of war it was the pilots who flew them. The Aces are the ones who knew how to fly the machine they had at the time and made improvements through the war.
If that old story is true it was the USAAF as I heard ,the poster was from Boeing or Consolidated . RAF makes no sense as they flew by night and would not have met the 190. The Americans did come up against the FW during their daylight raids and had every reason to be afraid of it.
The engines of these magnificent flying machines just sounds so incredible! Even though these are flying replicas, they still looked and sound fantastic!
@@DenKHK pretty sure this one uses a Chinese built version of the Shvetzov Ash, which (I think) is itself an improved copy of the Wright Cyclone. If you look closely at the engine cowling, it doesn’t blend quite as smoothly with the front fuselage section mounting the guns. Still gorgeous though!
@@kneeslider47 Aren't all the motors of all of the replica FW190's of the Flugwerk manufacturing from Russia? From a Russian copy of the original BMW engine of the FW190?
@@manuelespanol4560 This is important to people like us but it needs to be kept in proportion. If you want to learn the lessons of WWII, read about them. This is a luxury for people like us who happen to like warbirds.
@@thethirdman225 Keeping these warbirds alive is Keeping history and consequences Alive, for the people of today and the future. That there are lovers of these warbirds, contributes to both causes. Cheers
It’s my favorite playing to watch being shot down by Robert S Johnson or Francis Gabreski on WWII Gun camera films. Good riddance to Nazism and racism. The master race got blasted into history, thank God and the allies
Loved it when you see these two iconic aircraft side by side the first thing that hits me is how different the undercarriage is on both planes they say a Spitfire is a difficult plane on the ground but a beauty in the air the Focke Wolf has presence in both a fantastic video loved it.
Gotta admit the FW190 was a marvel of engineering prowess for it's time, I never realised how small it was until seeing it in profile next to the Spitfire (must've been like trying to shoot down a fly), I can see now why it's appearance caused consternation amongst the allied air forces.
@@MrRugbylane I think that it is because of armoring. The plane was also designed for ground attack (a fighter-bomber). Wing loading is much higher on the Fw than on the spitfire, so it was less maneuverable. The Angle of attack (basically how much you can deviate your nose from your flight path) was much higher on the Spitfire. However the Fw was very fast in a dive, hence the boom and zoom tactics of the Luftwaffe, if caught in a turn fight with a spitfire, the plane would loose. It is interesting the design choices, that went into each plane. British seemed to make their own version of a fighter bomber with the Tempest, which also is a pretty cool plane.
Very soon, only those that have taken their "medicine" and can afford the expense due to climate laws will be allowed to travel. The rest of the people will never be allowed to venture around again.
@@thomast8539 Yep, in Australia they have done just that. In Melbourne going to the shops with out a vaccine certificate is a no go and your turned away. No say no choice.
These old warbirds are so iconic, everybody, who's only a little interested in aircrafts will know and recognize these beautiful birds. i think, i must visit Usedom very soon to see these magnificent place and some of the birds. Stunning video, thx for that !! 👍👍👍
Thank you to keep this pieces of history alive ! I would really like to be in the cockpit behind the pilot to feel the sensations of those men who have to fly and fight in such a terrible time
Best fighter aviation channel. The jewels are rare and very well preserved. Each one better than the other. This FW 190 will truly be unforgettable. congratulations from Brazil
I have seen a restorated FW190 in a Museum in Hannover many Years ago. I was faszinated by the Handcraftship and the Details that created this Plane . All this Warburds of the Nationes ,who foght in WW2 were masterpieces af Engineering .
Robert S Johnson shot down about a dozen of them in his thunderbolt, and that’s great! To hell with the Nazis! It’s a pretty airplane though, I noticed it smokes a little bit, don’t know why?
Tolles Video von 2019. Immer wieder schön Klaus Plasa "at the controls" in der Fw 190 zu sehen. Und natürlich auch Rob Davies in der Spitfire. Zwei absolute Könner. Danke für's Hochladen.:)
Superb footage of this impressive aircraft. As others have said, nice to hear her start up even if it isn’t the historically correct power plant! Its a big radial and they sound just fine! “Butcher Bird”
For a second my heart skipped a beat when I read the title as the D (Dora model) instead of the factory serial. Fw-190Ds are extremely rare today and I don't recall seeing one that's even airworthy. Regardless, it's a good day to hear an original BMW-801 engine come to life. Amazing footage!
+ Nafeels Entertainment This is not a BMW engine. Only one original Fw-190 flies with a BMW, and a second restoration is almost finished. There are no flyable Doras but there are several projects making slow progress and a few replicas. Look for a replica to fly soon with an Allison V12.
One of the things that made WWii such an amazing topic of study was the cutting edge ahead of it's time technology were the incredible flying machines flown by both the Germans and Allies. Each side competing for that little edge to gain advantage and then the Germans finally introduced the ME-262 right near the end of the war. Incredible to see them all here on display and still flying still amazes when you think this was 80 + years ago when these planes were put into battle over the skies in Europe.
Grüße aus der Ukraine! Spitfire und fw-190 im Tiefflug über dem Flugplatz - unglaublicher Anblick und ohrenbetäubender Sound! Entschuldigung für mein Deutsch. )))
190 A = fighter.... 190A4 was a spitfire (Mark V?) killer The 190 Dora was an interceptor, and "boom and zoom fighter" Beyond D are the extreme interceptors, no fighter qualities
Flown here by Klaus Plasa, who is the German equivalent of our Steve Hinton. Would love to see a balls-out dogfight between those fabulous WW2 warbird pilots. Hinton is fond of the F4U Corsair, which is as fast as the P-51. Plasa has done some darn good flying in the BF109G, so might choose that.
Thanks for the video. I had to look up Usedom myself as a longtime Duxford visitor and I'll definitely have to go there once traveling is once again less annoying.
The swastika is illegal in Germany and has been for decades. The exception is for approved displays or educational purposes. Obviously this plane didn't qualify for an exemption (or perhaps the owners simply didn't want a full swastika).
Grandfather Paul worked on these after stepping away from Stuka rear gunner duties (vertigo). Still have his BMW801 engine repair license from training school in Munich 1945. The war would be over in a few months. He loved the JU87 and FW190.
My Son's and I spoke to both of them at the Edwards AFB Air Show on October 14, 1997 for the 50th Anniversary of Yeager's breaking of the sound barrier ... where Bob Hoover was flying as observer in a P80 Shooting Star. What I didn't know is that during WWII, both Chuck and Bob were both shot down by a Folke Wulf 190 on separate occasions. My favorite is the FW190 A3.
Similar story, as a kid I was running around in the garden with a model Hurricane in my hand. My ‘scary neighbour’ (his face was covered in skin grafts) shouted over the fence “that’s a Mk2B - I flew them in Africa!” I then proceeded to interrogate the poor man about his entire ww2 experiences
Just an allround great plane. Aesthetic, functional, performant and multi role. Arguably the epitome of the WW2 radial engine fighter plane. And the D9 variant is probably the most beautiful and elegant propeller fighter plane ever.
wait, am I missing something....I was expecting a Dora 9-----this one looks like it's a radial, not a D-9?.....Doesn't matter it's still an excellent video, extremely well done and the flying is brilliant in both A/C
@@Sugar_K Yes i know that. THe D9 is baiscally a different aircraft built on a heavily modified FW 190 frame. I was just saying that the D9 is even more aesthetic than the regular FW 190 which we see here.
So sad there were so few left capable of flight. I'd have loved to see an A6M Zero, the FW, the 109, the Mustang, the Italian MC 202, the Spitfire, all the great fighters in an air race.
Interesting to hear what such a threat to the allied aircraft during the war, sounded like. Bit of a spitfire, in it's own way. Was taken to the Battle of Britain museum by my late father, at Biggin Hill when I was about three. That would be 1958. Think I recall seeing one among the amazing collection of types.
It was called Würger in German which is a Shrike in English, commonly known as butcher birds because they often hang up their prey on thorns or barbed wire.
Wonderful machines..must have been a LOT of work to get to this stage. At least one positive thing came from war. The Focke Wulf is very purposeful whilst the Spitfire is very elegant.
It's so interesting they only have the 4-line outline of the swastika on the tail. They respect history but disapprove of the criminal-political element of the war. I must respect their scruples. Thank you for the post. The FW190 is amazing. Australia
Man that was awesome! Beautiful 190! You just got a subscriber. Of course putting it up against a Griffon powered Spit might have had tragic results but for the skill of your 190 pilot! Is that an actual BMW 801? It sure don't sound like a P&W. Great video.👍😎
@@chrissimmonds3734 Thanx for the info! I wasn't aware this was not restoration. Very cool that someone did that. We had a company here in US that was going to make 5 Me 262s. They managed to complete 3 I believe, at least one of which is owned by the Messerschmiitt Foundation. It's nice when people that have the resources and the passion actually DO IT. The rest of us can enjoy the fruits of their labor, and many thanks to them.

Similar story, as a kid I was running around in the garden with a model Hurricane in my hand. My ‘scary neighbour’ (his face was covered in skin grafts) shouted over the fence “that’s a Mk2B - I flew them in Africa!” I then proceeded to interrogate the poor man about his entire ww2 experiences
Video quality amazing. Thank you so much and what a wonderful truly iconic aircraft.
Just an allround great plane. Aesthetic, functional, performant and multi role. Arguably the epitome of the WW2 radial engine fighter plane. And the D9 variant is probably the most beautiful and elegant propeller fighter plane ever.
Thanks watching
wait, am I missing something....I was expecting a Dora 9-----this one looks like it's a radial, not a D-9?.....Doesn't matter it's still an excellent video, extremely well done and the flying is brilliant in both A/C
@@jamesvetter4033 Correct, this is the radial FW 190D.
@@axelhopfinger533 its an a-8 not a d9.. the D9 has a different canopy, is lengthened where the red stripe is and a Jumo 213 C v12
@@Sugar_K Yes i know that. THe D9 is baiscally a different aircraft built on a heavily modified FW 190 frame.
I was just saying that the D9 is even more aesthetic than the regular FW 190 which we see here.
What a great piece of engineering perfectly restored. Pleasure to watch. 🇬🇧
thank you
So sad there were so few left capable of flight. I'd have loved to see an A6M Zero, the FW, the 109, the Mustang, the Italian MC 202, the Spitfire, all the great fighters in an air race.
I'd love to add a complete, historic Tempest and/or Sea Fury to that..
So rare to see This plane!
Beautiful vidéo, thanks a lot!
Thanks watching
Amazing engine sound
Thx mate
The sound of round.
Beautiful planes, these things should be remembered.
Thanks watching
Ausgezeichnet, mein Herr !!!
Danke Robert
Super!!
Gratuliere!
Danke !!!
Interesting to hear what such a threat to the allied aircraft during the war, sounded like. Bit of a spitfire, in it's own way.
Was taken to the Battle of Britain museum by my late father, at Biggin Hill when I was about three. That would be 1958. Think I recall seeing one among the amazing collection of types.
Absolutely magnificent… referred too as the Butcher Bird by WW2 RAF Fighter pilots.
It was called Würger in German which is a Shrike in English, commonly known as butcher birds because they often hang up their prey on thorns or barbed wire.
Many thanks for another great video - both are great aircraft, but the Messie's lines are so sleek and beautiful...good job!
Thanks watching and beeing subscribed
Not one of my favorite airplanes but it's a joy to see it airborne 👍👍
I can’t imagine the sound of multiple squadrons passing overhead.
Fw190 A8! Awsomeeeeee
Thanks
I had the same thought...
The D model has the inverted V12, right?
Greetings from Brazil.
@@andreferro4618 sim o D "Dora" tinha um Junkers Jumo 213A invertido de 12 cilindros. Cumprimentos de Portugal 👍
@@azorean88 Que bom ouvir de Portugal! Terra dos meus ancestrais! Lá de Melgaço do Minho!
Saudações, irmão Português!

Wonderful machines..must have been a LOT of work to get to this stage. At least one positive thing came from war. The Focke Wulf is very purposeful whilst the Spitfire is very elegant.
Two very famous airplanes. Too bad you couldn't have had a P 51 in the mix.
It's so interesting they only have the 4-line outline of the swastika on the tail. They respect history but disapprove of the criminal-political element of the war. I must respect their scruples. Thank you for the post. The FW190 is amazing. Australia
it's a criminal offense to show the swastika in Germany.
Nice photography. Keep 'em coming!
Thanks a lot !
Great views. Thumbs up!
Thx
Man that was awesome! Beautiful 190! You just got a subscriber. Of course putting it up against a Griffon powered Spit might have had tragic results but for the skill of your 190 pilot! Is that an actual BMW 801? It sure don't sound like a P&W. Great video.👍😎
The new build FW190 had Soviet Ash82 Engine.
I hat an Svetsov Ash 82 installed with 1700hp
Actually it’s a soviet russian designed and built engine the Shetsov Ash 82 that was used in these replica FW 190 made by Flug Werk in 2000s
@@chrissimmonds3734 Thanx for the info! I wasn't aware this was not restoration. Very cool that someone did that. We had a company here in US that was going to make 5 Me 262s. They managed to complete 3 I believe, at least one of which is owned by the Messerschmiitt Foundation. It's nice when people that have the resources and the passion actually DO IT. The rest of us can enjoy the fruits of their labor, and many thanks to them.
Only original fw190d with junkers jumo is in States flyable but won't because of its rarity
