Is that the only Condor 200 in existence?
Good question. From Wikipedia:
Quote:
Only one relatively complete Fw 200 exists today, an aircraft that ditched in February 1942 and sank to a depth of 60 metres (197 feet). This aircraft was raised from Trondheim Fjord in Norway on 26 May 1999. Although the airframe disintegrated whilst being lowered onto a recovery platform, the remains were transported to the German Museum of Technology in Berlin to be rebuilt. A request from the museum for a set of separate wings to be recovered from the Kvitanosi mountain near Voss in Norway to complete the rebuild was at first denied, because the local population wanted the wings to be left in situ as a war memorial. A compromise was reached in 2008 where parts not needed for the restoration would be left on the mountain. During the autumn of 2009 parts were moved down by helicopter and made ready for transport to the Museum of Technology.
