see the little puffs of smoke as he adjusted the throttle on landing. Thats what they should add to AH with the new effects.

I think traditionally its 5 flights gear down before you go gear up. I believe 5 is what it is with commercial new model airplanes.

Thanks for the vid, VWE, when I fired that up with my bass on, my son's parakeet started singing like a suprano!

Ok....., that's an 'Airplane'. I'm glad he didn't try to do anything 'stupid' on what I'm taking to be it's first flight.

BTW, it that 4/5 scale ?

No, that was the third flight...

And it's 1:1, or at least it should be... Check out Flugwerk.de for more info on that plane.

Or am I completely mistaken and there's another company building 190's? I have seen that video before and I vaguely remember that it was the Flugwerk 190...?

edit: nevermind, read what Pongo said.

That video is of the Flugworks 190... and now for something completely different!

Same or similar, but less powerful engine?

It wasnt smaller. It had a longer wingspan, more wing area, bigger H stabs, much bigger/taller v stab, much bulkier fuselage. It was somewhat shorther though.

BTW this new Fw190 is very inaccurate with the cowl, the shape s clearly off and it might be off oin length too.

There. got that ion again.

Yea I never understood why ppl think its a "big" plane. It is a heavy pos for its size tho.

Gunz, what are you referring to, regarding the cowling?

Its a standard 190a8 cowl, with the 12mm machine gun covers.

Regarding your POS remark, this aircraft ruled the Channel for a long while. It was called the twittler Scurge.
