Anyone know what happened to them? I rememember there being some sort of legal issue with the modified V1710s but have heard nothing since.
Yes I did look on their website, but the bit I wanted to read is in German.
Oxcart,
Put the website page address into Google Translate. You will get an acceptable version of the text.

AFAIK they made 3 “longnose” “D´s”. One is wit Eric Vormezeele in Belgium, one (Black 12) was with Tom Blair, now with Jerry Yagen. The other one was (initially at least) to be operated / owned by Flugwerk, but I have not seen any pic of this one, nor do I know anything of the whereabouts. Maybe someone else has better (newer) information. The Vormezeele and the Yagen ones are intended to be airworthy and flown with the original Fw 190 D engine, Jumo 213.
