Focke Wulf 190 wreck / Avião Segunda Guerra Mundial

[DJMikaelito]

That plane was found in Russia it has been restored and used in Russian airforce Museum in Moscow.

[FiveCentsPlease]

@DJMikaelito

Nope.

Flying Heritage Collection, Everett, WA.

[DJMikaelito]

@FiveCentsPlease

Yes the flying version is on that collection but there is another one grounded in Russian museum....the engine was destroyed and cant be rebuild but the one they found in the video was in good shape.

[FiveCentsPlease]

@DJMikaelito

The Fw190 in the video above is not the one you are saying is in a Russian museum. In fact, if you know the Wk.Nr. of the Russian example, please provide it so that I can forward it to someone. The crashed example above had an engine failure, so the engine was basically ruined.

[freedomfighter51]

if u recover this aircraft im sure a collector will prob give around 50000 a 350.000 euro for there so rare but its amazing they found just like that in the woods whit as i can see lots of stuff in nice condition and yes it could be restored if u have the money :}

[TheCatJoker]

That plane looks pretty focke'd-up to me.

Этот самолет восстановлен западными энтузиастами во главе с бывшим сопрезидентом Microsoft Полом Алленом.Он единственный оригинальный самолет ВОВ годный к полетам , а наводелов сейчас пруд пруди..

[jsarkar339]

Is there any History attached to this Aircraft?, which Staffel was it from? any info as regards to the crash, location or pilot?

[FiveCentsPlease]

@jsarkar339

Fw190 A5 White A of 4./JG54, Werk. No. 0151227. Lost on July 19. 1943 on mission to bomb a train. The loss report states lost from flak, but evidence in the restoration shows engine failure and no flak damage. The engine showed severe heat stress. The pilot Feldwebel Paul Rätz is thought to have escaped on foot since the base was only a few miles away, but there are conflicting stories that he is MIA or was a POW and repatriated to Germany some years later. Continued....

@jsarkar339

The plane was removed in 1991(located outside St. Petersburg) and the full restoration to original condition was completed this year after 20 years of work. First flight was on Dec. 1, 2010, being the first fully authentic Fw190 to fly since shortly after the war. It will be repainted in the same summer JG54 colors (forest greens and browns) it had on the day of the crash and will be part of the Flying Heritage Collection as a flying exhibit..

[jsarkar339]

@FiveCentsPlease- Ahh JG54, Would that be the same FW-190 based a Duxford, Imperial War Museum, just been restored?

Because ive seen that aircraft flying, apparently that is also an original airframe, wondered if it was the same aircraft

[FiveCentsPlease]

@jsarkar339

Nope. There are a series of Fw190 replicas that are being constructed and you will see videos of a few of them flying. They aren't 100% original and none fly at Duxford currently.

This JG54 example is the first original wartime BMW-powered Fw190 to be restored for flight and will be in the US. The paint hasn't been applied yet while it has flight tests. There may be some flight video soon. A second WWII original Fw190A-8 is nearly complete for flight in the US as well.

[cygaene]

they speak russian, it may be somewhere in russia, ukraina or poland

[wolf1percenter]

i love these planes, i got the chance to sit in one years ago at biggin hill when it was still air force owned. great video. thanks.

[Xiolablu3]

This FW190 is now flying and the only FW190 with a real BMW engine in th eworld.

[FiveCentsPlease]

@Xiolablu3

A second original will be completed soon, hopefully.

[Xiolablu3]

@FiveCentsPlease Thanks for the info, my firend. I love this aircraft.

[FiveCentsPlease]

This plane is now airworthy and has completed the first test flight on Dec 1, 2010.

[planejunky]

@FiveCentsPlease She is indeed, outstanding restoration too!

[RebelSonBand]

I think the pilot made it out of there.....The cockpit is open,if he bailed at high altitude the plane would have been totally destroyed.....I think he did a crash-landing-----but why he didnt set the plane on fire(normal orders)I dont now.....

[jeepers2655]

better shape than the one they dug up!

[33049156]

gee. that pilot was good. its not easy to put that plane down in a forest with so little damage :P

[mamc1943]

@33049156 Forty years ago there was no forest here, the trees grew in the meantime, thus helping to hide the aircraft until now........

[FiveCentsPlease]

@mamc1943

And the wartime paint is now known to be a field-applied mixture of forest greens and browns over the standard Luftwaffe colors, for summer camouflage. So it's possible that it was hard to see after the crash unless you came upon it. Upper machine guns were missing, so someone visited it at some point--thought to be Russian troops taking the guns. It will be repainted in the same colors at the museum.

[TheMe110]

[FiveCentsPlease]

@nowheelspin

The film is 20 years old. The plane is being restored by a well-known collector presently.

[nowheelspin]

@FiveCentsPlease awesome so 1day we will get to see it fly again !

[oron42]

[ollenhauer1]

das flugzeug gehört das deutsche reich,bitte nicht anfassen ,bald kommt der flugzeugmeister und wird die brachbarkeit für weitere einsätze einschätzen."im namen des deutschen volkes".

[mrford70]

nice to no So it's in good hands

[mrford70]

so that bird is restored ???

[FiveCentsPlease]

It's almost finished, but no firm date for when that will happen.

[shulzz68]

Нашёл гад свою смертушку, а кто то и бабуинов поднял со дна болота.

[saab16guy]

could that be restored

[georgejelfs67]

no

youd baycily have to replace all the parts

[luftwicker07]

@saab16guy It has been restored. First flight was early this year. First FW-190 in the air in 65 years. And with the original BMW-801. Flown by Flying Heritage Company.

[mixerd0822]

if you go to flying heritage collection. on youtube you will see this plane fly!

[beauf1ght3r]

the FW190 with flying heritage collection is a diff model its a Fw 190 D-13 (Dora) not the A version.

[FiveCentsPlease]

The Flying Heritage Collection now owns both of them.

[bishopquack]

work of art

[noobie64]

Amazing find, remarkably good condition for spending 50+ years in the woods.

[Nekron70]

Dude, That is still very cool... the most you can do where I live find something from the last carnival or if you are real lucky the civil war. my brother found a pistol (just the frame and spindle) and a cannon shell (at least what we think is a cannon shell), lol, you guys get to find tanks and planes. :)

[flex2000watt]

hey chitowngangsta, please dont talk bullsh*t to the people

I am member in a war relicts searchers group with scientists in germany, and we have completete card material all over europe battelfields material and we know all places where maybe somthing could be. Every day we are checking in woods forrest for thing, and a thing like a panther which where never used in the blackforrest, we woud know that., and i know nothing about it, we do it in a historical mission, USA has stolen enough stuff

[Nekron70]

whats the coolest thing that you have found?

[flex2000watt]

An living nazi commander, old and covered with dust in an active bunker.... :D

My best found by my own was an vw-kübelwagen Door and the rusty rests of it ...

[flute4hire]

I found 3 Japanese soldiers holed up on an atol refusing to beleve the war was over.

[uyesu]

"USA has stolen enough stuff"

that's terrible.

...what else did they do?

[binoculord]

@uyesu There are many millionaires in Russia who can afford to restore the aircraft but if they dont want to then let a millionaire in the US have it!

[uyesu]

@binoculord how much of this aircraft can be reused? perhaps a few bits and pieces, or, maybe nothing at all? the US Federal Aviation Administration is almost intolerantly picky about which airframes are deemed airworthy. planes that look undamaged to us are written off as junk by the FAA. it doesn't matter how much money is spent to restore an aircraft if there's nothing of use that exists to attach new parts to. obviously, if someone wants to scrub it clean for static display, no real problem.

[uyesu]

@uyesu (continued) but it will never fly again.

[FiveCentsPlease]

Paul Allen (co-founder of Microsoft) now owns it for his Flying Heritage Collection. So it's in good hands and has been undergoing a meticulous restoration to original airworthy condition for many years. It's almost finished. Allen sets a VERY high standard for his aircraft and originality is being preserved. Whether it will actually be flown or parked in the museum is anyone's guess. It's a very RARE airplane to risk.

[sOnarPL]

Its russian language not polish. Nice treasure wow. Take it to museum : )

[bbtomik]

waw nice found really..it's in germany?

[sgnikkosgnakko]

where is this foke exactly???

[dultra]

I'm not sure. i think in poland

[pedroos85]

@dultra

w dupie k***a nie w polsce, złomiarze albo okoliczna wiocha już dawno by rozniesli,

rather somewhere in depth of Russia or Ukraine in somw swamps...

[VictorSeedorsky]

@dultra it's in Russia idiots..!! Didin't You listed the dialogue..? They are Russians..! In poland we don't have something like that in our woods.. If so - it stands in museum not in a wood.. 

[FiveCentsPlease]

Discovered in Russia, now in the US to be with the Flying Heritage Collection.

[matteoeoeo]

@sgnikkosgnakko

they speak in russian, i think in russia

[JoachimMuncheberg]

@sgnikkosgnakko

Russia - Leningrad (Saint Petersburg)

[CHITOWNGANGSTA1981]

There are tons of stuff all over German in the black forest or else where and one time I went to Germany & me my guys found a half track and a panther tank, been there for 56 years, we look at it and it was out of fuel, it wasn't even battle damage so i guess they abandon it, i know back than they were low on everything so yeah its crazy what u might find, sometimes ancient roman battle grounds so those of you that like to find stuff, go there and u will find something and its fun too......

[GOUGOUNETTE]

amazing

[robitsme]

wow.. what a find...where was the fokker found?

[SAND1447]

It's always been a dream of mine to discover and reclaim rare aircraft such as this....someday..

[ENGL4ND3R]

It looks in pretty good nick considering the amount of years she has been laying their totally exposed to the elements thank you for posting this video..

[screamingcockatoo]

It's too badly corroded to fly again.

But the parts can be used for a pattern to rebuild it.

It's the data plates that are important.

[FiveCentsPlease]

By comparison to others, this plane is in great shape, although I believe the wing spar had cracked and there was corrosion to the lower engine cowling. Paul Allen of the Flying Heritage Collection owns this plane now and the restoration was to use as much of the original aircraft as possible. The restoration should be done soon and many are looking forward to seeing it, even if it does not fly.

[zinnington]

Believe it or not, it has been restored to flying condition.

[agcatdriver]

Apparently not, it IS flying again.

[screamingcockatoo]

Because all of the major structure was replaced/fabricated.

Many parts had to be fabricated. It is basically flying data-plates.

[agcatdriver]

Not unlike SEVERAL other rare warbirds of that same era.

[PanzerAngriff]

Not in that condition. Alot of the metal was able to be saved because of the condition. They have restored airplanes which were nearly 100% worse off than that one before, trust me.

[FiveCentsPlease]

It's now owned by Paul Allen (of Microsoft) and he has gone to great expense restore his collection to original standards. This Fw190 has been in restoration for a long time and is using as much original material as possible. The plane is now in the final stages of restoration, though no current photos have been published. But I agree that this plane could have been a time capsule, but that didn't happen while the plane changed between owners after recovery.

[powerheli777]

Wahnsinnig!!,Die Focke Wulf ist nach so vielen Jahren,noch in einem recht guten Zustand!

Wo wurde sie gefunden?Where was found the Focke? Wheres the Pilot?

[dultra]

Ich Freund Ich habe keine Ahnung.

[stwade]

do you happen to have any information as to the whereabouts of the pilot? did he die in thec crash? did he make an escape?

[dultra]

sorry mam i have no idea about it

[FiveCentsPlease]

@stwade

The pilot is listed as MIA. It is assumed he left on foot toward the Luftwaffe base a few miles away, but may have been captured or killed. The plane crashed from engine failure while returning from a mission.

[VictorSeedorsky]

@powerheli777 probably dead..(?) It's standing there about 70 years..!!? Hallo..!!? Get a live..! We have 2010..

[powerheli777]

@VictorSeedorsky he,meine Nachricht ist 2 Jahre alt!! Ich weis wenigstens wie der Pilot hieß!!! Es war Paul Ratz,und er hat überlebt! hallo!!? nicht informiert??!

[loht773]

Amazing!, has any avation museum personel in Russia seen this?. It could be re built more easyly because its in a very well mantained, it could even be airborne!.

Thanks for the video!

[dultra]

I espeak english very little

I think it was found in poland

[loht773]

WOW!, my god amazing!. Its in good conditions after a long time of being there in the forest. Was any aviation museum authory being inform of the location of the plane?, it can be re built and maybe once again airborne!.

Cheers!

[FiveCentsPlease]

This footage dates from the early 1990s. The aircraft (an A-5 model) was discovered outside of St. Petersburg, Russia and was recovered. After changing owners once or twice it is now owned by Paul Allen (of Microsoft) for his Flying Heritage Collection in Seattle. It is being meticulously restored to airworthy condition and is nearly done, but it is not yet known if it will actually be flown due to it's rarity.
