  1. A couple of links to start off, that may help - you may have to do a "Ctrl F" search for "Anson" or Hallicrafter ............ https://eehe.org.uk/?p=40855 https://nzvrshome.files.wordpress.com/2020/06/nzvrs-40-2019-annual.pdf
  2. Yes the fin on the V18/U1 was modified to look similar - but not identical to the 152 - type fin. Similarly the five other 190C-type Versuchs had this type of fin. these were the 190V29, 190V30, 190V31, 190V32 and 190V33. The engine/spinner datum on the Fw190D-9 was 60mm above the main horizontal fuselage datum of the Fw190A. The engine/spinner datum on the Fw190V13, 190V15, 190V16 and other 190C Versuchs was 110mm higher than the main horizontal fuselage datum of the Fw190A. All Jumo-powered 190 had a radiator cowl 1100mm in diameter. All DB-powered 190 had a radiator cowl 1200mm in diameter. Hope that helps.
  3. Vlad.................. link to Aviation Megastore advert..... https://www.aviationmegastore.com/modelling/focke-wulf-fw-190d-9-marienburg-late-production-ibg-models-72532-185787.html
  4. And the fuselage gun hood - first saw the larger version of this photo in Steve Sheflin's Airfoil number 3, 1985 (attributed to Monogram Aviation), where it was suggested the light colour was 76 or 77, so the story continues .... anybody near Furth got a shovel?
  5. Also in the photo of aircraft 30 it looks as if the star under the right wing (at least) has 2 points to the front.......
  6. Thank you Robert, exactly what I was after. Thank you for your time. Cheers maurice
  7. Thank you Robert...... just to clarify does that mean that all production Tigers and all production Panthers had traditional petrol drives to the sprockets? Thanks maurice
  8. Hi All, Hope somebody can help me, I know a little about aircraft and ships but not much about AFV. I have always thought the Tigers and Panthers used a standard internal combustion engines powering their drive sprockets. Recently somebody told me that the Tigers and perhaps even Panthers had petrol engines and that these supplied power to a generator which produced electricity to power electric motors that turned the drive sprockets. What is correct please? Many thanks in advance, maurice
  9. Absolutely stunning ............
  10. Fantastic workmanship Nick 🙂
  11. I am sorry Evert Jan, but I cannot find words to explain how much I admire your workmanship .... so I will just sit and watch in silence. Be assured that I am still here watching and admiring ....... in silence 🙂
