Title: Fw190A8 and A5 dimensions
Post by: Pei on August 24, 2002, 11:03:26 AM

Could anyone point me towards accurate information on the structural dimensions (e.g. height, length, wingspan) of the 190a8 and a5 (not sure if they are differences in size terms), preferably in metric measure?

Thanks

Pei, I have some really accurate engineering drawings on the A8 around somewhere if you need them.

Pei, if you can find a book called

"Aircraft Archive - Classics of WW2"

ISBN 0-85242-985-1

it has 22 pages (210mmx297mm)  of Fw190 A, F G scale  drawings.

I have all the WWII fighter volumes and one of the WWII bomber volumes.......

So...does anyone have any early Air Enthusiast's...one has a good article on the G.55...I need the specs.....

 Let me know if you haven't got what you wanted..

I have Fw190&Ta152 and it states a shorter wing span but the same wing area as the rest (Klein Wing)...but my drawings show the major difference being the 5" plug moving the engine forward.
