For your information. Yesterday, a comlete fw190 a3 was salvagded from the sea in near perfect condition after it was localized last summer. It will be restored to former glory and probably rest at Herdla museum, just outside Bergen in Norway,where it was stationed, as a centerpiece on the site its pilot called home during the occupation of norway.

If anyone would like to see pictures from the salvaging, go see at ipms norway `s site in the forum there

It is mostly useful when you could provide a link to the net reference you are quoting .. many thanks
