Re: Submerged Fw190 recovered

Admin,
Hey there.

Thanks for posting the link. I'm pretty sure I've seen part of this sequence before, though the link Admin provided has far more numerous and detailed pictures than I previously recall seeing. (It might have been on the old forum?) If memory holds up, this recovery was in Norway a few years ago.
 

Anything for a weird life.

Yes, it was in Norway. Here's the story, but it's in Norwegian.

Re: Submerged Fw190 recovered

Great post. Yes, we've seen it before but nowhere near as detailed. It may have been a link to a news site.

Re: Submerged Fw190 recovered

Wondering when an article on this will pop up in FlyPast or The Aeroplane? Both these publications usually catch the latest finds like this have and some neat information about the find.
