Isn't Crumpp writing a book on 190s?

I bet it contains all the relevant info on subject.

There is not much sense to share those charts for free that has cost him money to collect for his book? :)

1. list of meetings, commitments, or appointments: an outline description of the things somebody is to do and the times at which they are to be done
 
2. work plan: a plan of work to be done, showing the order in which tasks are to be carried out and the amounts of time allocated to them.

Notice both say to be done.

log

3. A record of a vehicle's performance, as the flight record of an aircraft.

3a. To travel (a specified distance, time, or speed): (in your list, the flight time with TO and landing times)

There is a difference and your so called 'test schedule' gives no description of what was being tested.

Stop being the weasel and just admit, for once at least, you used the wrong word.

So far no one has posted documentation what is the base line for normal performance of the A-5 or A-8.

I can't find them, just give the link.

I wonder what all this has to do with the performance of the LW planes.

Generally, you should be able to proof your arguments.

As I stated earlier, Gripen if you would read my post's:

It is within specifications for production FW-190A8 performance. Lower end of the scale but within specifications.


I don't know what you are trying to argue, you wanted to know the used intake, cooling fan etc. You should ask these from Shockwave productions, they put that data available.

I have only told my own observation that the data on tested A-8 (kampf- und startleistung) seem to agree well with the AH A-8 (military power). Nothing posted here proves that there is some kind of imbalance.

Finishing up most of the engine research now.  Might be sidetracked for a bit as we are putting together a series of shorter books for the Foundation.

Still have a few mysteries to be solved.

Crumpp, you should make an ignore list.


Good advice.  

All the best,

This bird is going to fly, yes?
And when?
Pictures? Links?
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

That would be great if someone would organize the FW190 fans in AH to start a donation drive.  We could really use the money and it is tax deductible for the US citizens.

Anybody fly WWIIOnline's FW190A4 out of curiosity?

"Anybody fly WWIIOnline's FW190A4 out of curiosity?"

I have. Otherwise the game started to suck so bad that I unsubbed a few days ago after playing it for three years along with AH.

I flew the WW2OL FW offline when it first came out and it was a jaw dropper. I thought that "let them keep their stinkin' sustained turn if I can whip this beast around this fast I can engage anything and in any situation."

Well, as it happened that version of FW never became "operational", but still the "neutered" WW2OL FW is somewhat different -as is their Spit IX.

Their FW is really a beast as long as it stays fast and in high speed it doesn't bleed speed rapidly in maneuvers (as expected). In slow speed it becomes quite hard to fly. Anyway it feels more pleasant to fly than AH A5. Of course it also flies against its contemporary rivals, and not LAs and Nikis, so that makes it to feel even more competitive.

Man if they could get a  Dora with a Jumo 213 a real Jumo 213A flying that would be most  delightful to see such a beauty fly again.

That is Yellow 10. We helped in the restoration.

It's a FW-190D13.

That would be Delightful if even thoguh they won't fly it they could rev the engine up to take off speed as if they were doing a pre takeoff power testing just to see how she sounds at full power.

Has it done so has it turned its engine on if so howq do the AH sounds  done by Mitsu san compare to the real thing.

How did the exhaust fumes smell, I bet delightful, but that's just me :D

I wonder why can't anyone Auto Cad the friggin  blueprints of the 190D-9 and start  making um, acquire a license from BMW or something to make the engines, and if Jumo is out of bussiness why can't they make the engines like they used to back then, I'm sure there's a market for these types of aircraft, if they were mass produced(considering the prime buyers rich folks) these planes would fly off the shelf.

C3 and B4 have a unique smell.  Not at all like natural petroleum Avgas.  More like dirty coal.
