Pity, there were some beautiful German planes in WWII, with the exception of the Flying Pencil which was just UGLY!!!
Ah well those new 190's will soon bring German aviation back to life Wink

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Well, it can only get better. I see Han Dittes Bf109G is airworthy again now, and at least one of the Flug Werk 190s will stay in Germany. Add to that the Me262 which is now in the final stages of its construction in Seattle, which will be on its way over...

Yep. I'm sure the one going to Germany has had its initial engine runs at least.

This may be of interest...

Me 262 Project

Also there is a genuine BoB veteran Bf109e at the former RAF Watisham in Suffolk, being restored for Microsoft boss Paul Allen's flying heritage collection in the US. Unfortunately I think this will be exported to the US before it flies, just like the 109e restored by the same team for the Santa Monica Museum (since sold to Ed Russell in Canada)...
