I've been looking around alot and i found out that kit aeroplanes are cheaper than manufactured planes.

I was wandering if there is any Replica Kits of WW2 Fighters?

Flugwerks (or something like that) might still be making 51s, and 190A8s.
Maybe other models, check it out.

"Real Replica."

Is that anything like a "genuine artificial" ingredient?

I meant real as in real airplane, and not a model of balsa wood or something.

FLUG WERK GmbH are going to build 190D's after their 190A-8's are finished right?

Flugwerk is doing 1 maybe 2 D9s as part of their 190 production run.

For what it's worth Paul Allen of Microsoft Fame etc has an amazing collection of aircraft and just added the FW190D13 to his collection.

He's also restoring a 190A5, and a B17E among others.  He has a P40B, P51D, Spitfire Vc, 109E etc all flyable.

Oh to have money.

you can purchase a yak3 from the russians for about $500k and it will be powered by an allison V1710 which as everyone knows (ask boroda) the evil americans copied from the brilliant soviet design the klimov.

Spitty piccy:

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)
