    Not a native english speaker. May sound a little funny here and there. If you have any info you would like to add, please do so in the comments. Check video-description for links.

    Millions around the world may not like us Germans but billions admire us and the quality of what we manufacture. Greeting from Dusseldorf.

    This is FW-190D13 the rarest aircraft ever (in my opinion) this content shall be golden.
  • Excellent video with typical germanic attention to detail. Yellow 10 entered our shop in Augsburg about 1971 for airframe repairs. The engine MBG was in situ but I cannot say whether it was complete. We had to find a prop hub and were contacted by a farmer near Aachen who had dug up a Junkers engine during drainage work. We steam cleaned the scrap engine and removed the prop hub. Dye penetration tests revealed no cracks which was surprising. The wooden prop blades had sheared off upon impact leaving 5cm of rotting laminate within the hub but as we found by drilling, good hard wood deeper into the prop roots. Two 20mm high tensile bolts were hammered into 18mm holes we'd drill in the prop root and using a steel bar as a lever between the vertical bolts, started to hammer. Two days and one wristwatch later we changed the direction of attack and the first prop root began to unscrew, left hand thread. The freed propeller root came out with a 'pop', the buna rubber o-ring still intact and the lube oil still in good condition. German engineering......

    An excellent look at the highlights of this museum. I hadn't realized that there will be an airworthy Ju-87 soon...extraordinary news.

    I was driving by Paine Field last summer and there was an air show going on. We pulled into a strip mall on the approach end of the runway and watched for 20 minutes as a B-25, P-51, Hurricane and P-47 flew 150' over the top of us in formation. It was incredible!!

    From somebody who lives here, I can highly recommend the museum to anyone who can visit it.

    Great video. German engineering and manufacturing of WW2 is truly fantastic, regardless of their enemy status. Those planes are truly beautiful even if they were built to wage war and death. The Germans led the world in so many ways, and rockets and jet engines are only two examples.

    Don't worry about the accent - we hear a lot of german in the US. Some of us who live here had relatives come to the states 200+ years ago, and german is still spoken in the house. As we used to say, I'll be critical of your english when my german is as good as your english. Which will be never.
  • I love these vintage war planes. Thank you Paul Allen for your passion with these aircraft. It is an expensive hobby, but worth every penny in my opinion. It makes me cringe to think how many were destroyed, and how few remain after so many were built. These German planes were exceptionally well designed and built under very difficult conditions..
  • I got super excited when I heard that the 262 had actual Jumo engines, it's incredible that they were able to recreate the engines.

    My Dad , Loyd N. Freeman, found the FW-190 D13 in Atlanta , Ga. Loyd began restoration on it and sold it to Doug Champlain.
  • I really enjoyed this. I missed the premier because of life stuff, but I've been excited all day about this video. Great footage, with a lot of detail. The footage of the 801 is just excellent.
  • @sixmagpies
    Excellently well spoken, clear and informative commentary. Thank you sir.

    I went to this museum for their Memorial Day show last year. They didn't do any flying, but they did some great shows of some of the armored vehicles. The Luftwaffe exhibit was impressive. They also had a pretty good exhibit of Japanese planes. This museum is well worth the money to see. Your English is much better than my Deutsch sir. I could probably still read the important signs and navigate the Flughafn, Ubahn, und Hauptbahnhof. I could easily order food at a Gasthaus though. That's the brain running on autopilot. Thanks for the great video. I enjoyed the diagram of the air flow through the 190 radial cowling. Well done.
  • @StratBurst92
    Very well done. The FW 190 has always been my favorite. I have a piece of armored glass from a FW 190 that crashed in Latvia.
  • Great video on the 801, my grandfather earned a mechanics license for working on these at the end of the war. He ended the war with SG151
  • @lsx001
    I love how you pronounced the German terms so accurately. Thanks for the great cameraman-ship, edit, and excellent narration on all small details!!! I learned so much from this video.
  • @mikoyanfulcrum1
    Just went to the "Flying Heritage" museum last month.(Feb 2020). Extremely cool!! One thing I thought was really cool was each aircraft had a placard that gave information about the aircraft in general, then gave information about THIS aircraft. SOO great to learn about the aircraft you were seeing right in front of you. Also ,..SOO great to see drip pans under most of the aircraft,... A sign that they were alive and would see the air soon!! Thank You!!
