Another warbird. From the cockpit instruments its definitley a K-4.

That's good to know. I wonder if it's being restored to flight or not. Ks had bigger wheels and a touch wider foundation for the gear so they probably were a little less hairy on the ground. Plus the long tail wheel made for a little better vision. Like I said so hard to find pictures of Ks.

Awesome news.
When I first entered the multiplayer Sim Aces High, more then a decade ago, the first ride I took was a K4.

Actually managing to get her off the ground I soon faced a Mustang who then tried to outrun the 109.
When I shot him down easily because he just flew straight, coms started with "WTF why did a 109 catch me!?"

Since then there is a love affair going on. Trying to go to see her in real once she is done for sure

I like the wider wheels and the longer tailwheel. Its funny the longer tailwheel should be standard feature on the K-4 but there are some pix of a K-4 (last WK numbers 265) with the short tail wheel. Many were retrofitted in the field. This K-4 was build near Regensburg and transfered to an little airfield near Amberg / Oberpfalz / Bavaria. It was found abondoned there. On this little field test flights were made, when the plane got a go it was transferred to the units.

Oh, now i see, the second link DB sent is the plane wich i meant. Cool.
