Damn that cowl contour is inaccurate...

It doesn't have the BMW engine Grun IIRC. They probably had to form it around what they have.

I was gonna say it's missing its swastika (for historical accuracy), but then I noticed the company is in Germany.

Thanks for the news.

Cool stuff.

They are using (i think dont quote me

) a chinease engine , that was the closest fitting engine for the profile of the 190.
All in all i think it looks fantastic , much better see it flying than not just cos of a few cosmetic features.

Russian copy as I understand it as far as the powerplant is concerned. I think the angle of the plane in the photo doesn't help in terms of how that contour looks,

opps, better call the bank....

I know it has a different engine, but still the cowl countours are obviously off and frankly I dount it has anything to do with the engine.
