Luftwaffe Fly Day

Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft, has one of the best collection of vintage airplanes in the world. The planes are on display at the Flying Heritage Collection in Everett, WA. Ryan took us to Paine Field on Saturday, August 17, where we enjoyed the Luftwaffe Fly Day. Three planes from WWII were flown: 1) the Fieseler Fi 156-C2 Storch — one of only a few remaining airworthy German examples in the world. Found in derelict condition in East Germany shortly before the 1990 unification. 2) Focke-Wulf Fw-190 A-5 — Most-common variant of Fw-190, this example was recovered, untouched, from a swamp outside of Leningrad and is the only flying A model with the original BMW 801 engine, and 3) Messerschmitt Bf-109E-3 Emil — This German mainstay used a powerful Daimler-Benz DB 601 engine married to a small airframe for maximum performance. Found near Calais, France in 1988, buried completely in beach sand and is airworthy.
