About On display at the recent Paris Airshow, this one caught my attention.

For those interested in the details: ?The Focke-Wulf Fw 190 was widely regarded as Germany's best fighter. It was more than a match for the contemporary Spitfires It ranks with the Supermarine Spitfire, Vought F4U Corsair and North American P-51 Mustang as one of the best fighters of World War II. The Focke-Wulf 190 was the work of a team of German designers headed by the famous Kurt Tank. It was evolved basically as a successor to the Messerschmitt Bf 109 fighter.?

All I know of aircraft is what I read. ;-)

I know it's a real plane but it does look like a model for some reason, not sure why exactly!?

Ça c'était un avion (le Messerschmitt)... malheureusement pour eux le Spitfire était beaucoup plus maniable et les pilotes pour s'en débarasser faisaient une virevolte et les reprenaient par derrière. Bon! assez!

Beautiful plane. I like the composition excluding all distractive elements. It reminds me of my scale modeling period. I was doing WWII airplanes. Regards, Claude

Hey George,
It looks fast and like it's "all engine" . Look at the size of that prop and engine compared to the rest of the plane. Excellent capture.

Cheers,

George,

Thats a wonderfu info to go with this magnificent fighter plane.

I fly small planes- the Chesna. But never learnt much about history of planes. A fascinating subject.

Nice shot.

regards,
ken.

You might be interested to learn, my friend, that it was planes like the one in your excellent photo that helped us, during the War of Independence, to beat the Egyptian Spitfires. They were supplied to us by countries behind the Iron Curtain. (1948-9)
Thank you, George, for your very kind comments on my "Leaves on roof" and my "Multicolored key chains."
Best regards,
Rafi
