The CAA register lists a new bunch of German aircraft registered late May:
Fieseler Fi156A-1 G-STCH s/n 2088 – Built 1942
Fieseler Fi156D-0 G-STOR s/n 110451 – Built 1943
Nord 1101 Noralpha G-MESS s/n 87 – Built 1945
Focke Wulf Fw190 D9 G-DORA s/n 211028 Built 1945
All to Glenn Lacey of Epsom, who also has owned Hunter G-EGHH for some years.
Could be interesting to watch this little lot

Thanks for that Tom,I remember reading about the recovery of a long-nose 190 from a river/lake a few years back and couldn’t remember which it was.Was gonna put up a post about it,but you beat me to it…

Don’t forget the static rebuild underway in Germany based on the lake Schwerin example. Have a look on Preserved Axis Aircraft for a piccie.

Doug Chamlpin has one under restoration (by at least one of the same team that rebuilt Black 6 – so you know it’ll be good) and there’s one in the USAF Museum at Wright Patterson (if you can see it in the dark!).
It wont be either of those, so it must be a recently discovered one.
Maybe it’s just another pile of bolts that has been registered before a new build project is completed around them.

is the FW190 a new build? where is it being restored? i cant find any information on the aircraft. Is it with Flugwerk? This will be an excellent addition to the UK air circuit.

I didn’t realise there was another Dora – thought Doug Champlin’s was the only one…?
