Fw 190As finally completed.

**Nightbomber** · 12-14-2014 10:15

It was a prolonged project, by finally has been completed yesterday.
4 Fw 190A models by AIM painted and decaled.
2 of them bear some generic RLM 74/75/76 camo appropriate for Eastern and Western front, but may be eventually used in the Med Theatre.
The African scheme and the Winter ones are specific for Med and EF.
This way I can combine some of them in different scenarios.
Cards made by Mike are printed and ready to be cut out. H maneuver deck is rather common. Prague 2015 will see them in action

I hate the winter lighting conditions here, no sun and only flash light possible, which I hate in this business.

Here are some more pics...

Very nice as all your planes are.

OK,

Things are starting to blur. Or my filing system is broken. I don't remember doing cards for these. Am I loosing it, or did you borrow some cards from my album?

Nice planes, BTW.

**Nightbomber** · 12-14-2014 12:26

Mike, I swear I have downloaded them from your album, but they might have been Max's as well. I will check it tomorrow when have access to my laptop, not just the tablet here

Yes they are very flash Andy.

What a fine looking lot.

**Naharaht** · 12-14-2014 13:02

Well done, Andrzej!

**Flying Helmut** · 12-14-2014 14:07

Super planes Andrzej!

**Jager** · 12-14-2014 14:51

Nice looking Shrikes; which models are you running, because the H deck is probably not right. You would have gotten the cards from Max's files, from before the fast decks.

**Flying Officer Kyte** · 12-14-2014 14:56

The card in Mike's file is a P deck.
Rob.

**OldGuy59** · 12-14-2014 14:57

I have cards in my album with "H" (A4s) and "O*" (A5, A6).

Which is correct, or are both?

PS: My "Offline" album has an A8 with an "R" deck, too?
PPS: The A8 on the Mistel has the "R" deck, as well. WWII German Oddities Album

**Jager** · 12-14-2014 15:16

The A4 fighters should all be Q deck; the fighter-bombers (A4/U#) should be F decks.
The A5s and A6s get a bit more complicated, but generally, yes the fighters are O* and the FBs are F; the A6s with under wing gun pods are Q*

Andrzej,

planes look great

**Teaticket** · 12-14-2014 15:51

Nice job Andy, looking good!

**grumpybear** · 12-14-2014 15:58

Those look great

**Lord_Ninja** · 12-14-2014 17:23

Being the idiot I can be on occasion, I am considering taking the ''R'' deck and printing it in a smaller scale to more closely match the speed of the "O" deck. But would the fast and slow movements be same once the "R" deck matched the speed of the "O" deck?

Karl,
Do we have an updated reference for the new decks and unofficial planes? Did I miss something? I thought we went through this discussion to get the "R" and "O*" on the cards before. Of course, that may have been for some other universe. The one with Harvey, the 6' invisible rabbit buddy?

What is the "O*" Deck, anyway?

**gully_raker** · 12-14-2014 18:48

Great looking models Andy & I like the different paint schemes.

AIM do make some great WW2 models.

**Marechallannes** · 12-14-2014 22:27

A great flight of FW190s, wingman.

We'll see some FW action in Prague.

**Archidamus** · 12-14-2014 23:33

Some great paint schemes Andy

**Biggles downunder** · 12-15-2014 00:10

Oh, very, very nice Andy!

The committee will be releasing an unofficial plane table soon; I'm sure the R and O* and Q* were discussed with the Fw-190 before.
O* is an O deck minus the 60 degree turns. Q* is the Q deck minus the extreme side slips (hard to do when you have extra weight on the wings

).
