To keep the record straight the Shvetsov ASh-82FN installed on the FlugWerk FW-190 is NOT a copy of the BMW-801 and never was...
It is a design evolved from the M-25, itself a licensed copy of the R-1820 Wright Cyclone. The other engine which can also be installed on the FlugWerk FW-190 (I mean, by FlugWerk) is the Chinese modified copy of the Shvetsov ASH-82V, the Dongan HS-7. Funnily enough the BMW-801 was a remote derivative of the Pratt and Whitney Hornet: Hornet (1X9Cyl) -> licensed copy as BMW114 -> improved as BMW132 -> doubled as BMW-139 (2X9cyl) -> BMW-801 (2X7 cyl) JVM

Nice videos, I'm jealous, thanks! There's something about seeing a 190 that is just above other warbirds. Just so folks don't get confused, the FHC Fw-190A-5 is not a Flugwerk aircraft, it is original with an original BMW 801 (but I didn't know it was owned by Paul Allen!). It's gonna be so cool to see and hear that one. I'd give my left, er, leg to be in Steve Hinton's shoes.

Here's the A-5 in Everett. This is the one that was found in Russia in the forest years ago
