About Me
I am 25 years old and have been interested in the Luftwaffe since I was about 14, but only began to concentrate on the FW 190 in February 1999. Since then I have spent a great deal of time trying to find out all I can about Kurt Tank's aircraft, and this web page has been created so I can share my knowledge of the aircraft with you. I hope I have achieved my purpose and I hope that the page is informative. Thanks for visiting.
