Title: Fw190 series info/pics needed ASAP
Post by: Waffle on April 04, 2005, 01:43:22 PM

Specifically looking for  the color the headrest was on the rear armor plated.

one link showing it in red leather...

Is there anyone with any information to back this up?

Also looking for detail stencils for instrument panels / left right consoles... close up pictures, ect.... especially any text.

Any good interior pics appreciated.


Thanks for your time - Waffle

Hi Waffle

This shot was taken some years ago at the old Champlin collection at Mesa. I think you can just make out that the headrest is a deep red (wine coloured). Sorry it's not better quality, but I couldn't get any closer to the plane at the time and the light bounced off the canopy quite a bit.

NASM F8 appears to be the red leather from the photos in the book on it's restoration.
