I like swedish strawberries :-P

One application the Caesar probably wouldn't be a Kaiser in is night fighting. Imagine those long exhaust collectors... glowing red hot. Would be a nice sight during tourist flying.

But there simply was no space like in the P47 to place them inside the fuselage (imagine them next to the central fuel tank ... brrrr XD

Last few days have been hectic for me, to say the least. Apart from OT, I see I haven't missed that much. :)

Actual RLM flight test data would be cool as well.

The problem is I don't have proper sources and searching with keywords produces a whole lot of ...

So if anyone stumbles upon these things, post them here :grin:

Do post when you have some more info, I'd do the same in my spare time (after Xmas of course)

Some guy posted in my thread on a different forum. He wrote a book about some FW190 models.

He does not have all info but some interesting stuff anyway:

As far as I know it exist no photograph from the cockpit of the Fw190V18U1. The book contains various photos of the machine, also two diagrammes of the flight performances and a summary of the test results.
The book contains also the complete Focke-Wulf construction description Nr. 252 from 17.8.1942 about the Fw 190 with DB603 and an exhaust turbocharger.
The maximum turbocharger rpm was 19000. At 10 200 m height activated the overspeed trip unit and over this height the constant rpm was 19600. The turbocharger switched on automatically.

But at some point in time there must have existed a photograph of the cockpit, take a look at the cockpit drawing from that russian model kit. And why I think it's genuine: Where's the Revi? And the panel has a completely different setup compared with the A4-A9, the D9-D15 and even the Ta152 C & H.
