super model build and photos as usual Les

Thanks Mike, terri, and Shawn!

Mike,
Work on the Fw 190A-10 was cancelled and no production aircraft were ever completed, but I have to wonder about the radial engined Fw 190 with the Ta 152 tail pictured on the top of page 228 in volume 1 of Jerry Crandall's Dora book, is it an A-9 or prototype A-10?

Harry,
Everything that I could find on the Fw 190A-10 says the same thing: none were built owing to loss of territory and production sites and the devolpment of the Ta 152H and C made the A-10 not worth the effort producing.
The aircraft I mentioned in the Dora book not only has the big Ta 152 style tail but also has the wide wooden propeller blades too, since the A-8 and F-8 did not use the wooden propeller I think its likely the aircraft in the photograph is an A-9 (orF-9). A few of my reference books claim some very late production A-9's and F-9's were fitted with the big tail but so far I have not seen any proof of this in photographs so its not possible to know for sure one way or the other.
