Just out of curiosity, the ad says they have built 21 FW190's. How many of these are current flyers?

About 3/4 of the way down the page. The question remains, are they just selling the FW-190
stuff or is there more to it?

This list seems to be an old one. Though I am no expert regarding the WNr.´s, I can correct / update at least some entries.

WNr. 990002 - Current registration of Jerry Yagen / Fighter Factory / MAM ´s White 11 (A-8) is D-FMFW, currently at Meier Motors Bremgarten/Germany (see thread).

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=39455

WNr. unknown - (D-9, with Allison) formerly with Tom Blair ("Black 12") is reported to be with Jerry Yagen / Fighter Factory / MAM now, on it´s way to MeierMotors to be converted to Jumo 213, but no confirmation of arrival till now.

WNr. 990013 - formerly with Christophe Jacquard, F-AZZJ, after ditching in the Mediterranian sold to a private German owner, currently at MeierMotors for extensive rebuilt, to be fitted with different engine, no futher information which one (on MeierMotors website it only says: will be a surprise, lol. PT-6 would be a real one for me).

Just my state of knowledge.

Which one is Dan (friend of WIX) Kirkland's? Not listed by name - I suspect the list is old, like all warbird ownership lists the day after they're published.

I hope the Paint Police didn't scare him off...
