FW44 Steiglitz Parts?

A friend of mine is restoring a FW44 to fly here in the UK.
He is looking for any spare parts, and in particular, a spare SH14 radial engine, if anyone knows about such things.

Many thanks

Pete

PH’s Stieglitz is now in the US, owned by Jerry Yagen. As far as I know it was never sold to a German collection. There are quite some flying in Germany though

Oops! Must’ve got confused with his Bestmann

I would second that idea. I bumped into Peter at O.W. a few years ago and as a result of my interest in his collection he very kindly took a couple of hours out of his schedule a few weeks later to give me a personal guided tour. His knowledge and attention to detail was breathtaking and i’m sure if there is anyone who can point you in the right direction it is him. Good luck, i look forward to hearing about the project’s progress…

Peter Holloway had one at Old Warden until sold to a German collection. It might be worth firing off an email to the collection. He still has his Storch there

Have you tried at Achmer (Germany)? They rebuilt theirs after an accident sometime ago, and used a donor frame as far as I can remember. It may be a long shot, I know.
