I did yes. I keep meaning to get some pictures taken, but never get round to it. I'll see what I can do this weekend.

Thanks kaa. That test pilot had large brass ones.
There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB. The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed. There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

Great vid, thanks.
What a strange "aircraft".

Holy ^%&*, Glad he made it out and they scraped the project. The Americans had their own weirdos,
