Talk:Focke-Wulf Fw 189 Uhu

message: Is the British example really the only surviving Fw 189? A twin-boom Luftwaffe reconnaissance plane appears in the Russian war movie Come and See, although it is seen only from a distance and may be a look-alike. Grant65 | Talk 17:04, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

message: While editing this article, I encountered the phrase "the Prague 337 pcs", and was uncertain what it meant and therefore how to handle it. I came up with 3 possibilities:
*It is the name of an Aero product, but the Aero WP article does not list an A.337. 
*It is the name of a part of Prague. 
*The previous author was saying that only 337 pieces of the Fw 189 were made in the Aero factory. 
I ended up making 337 pcs a wikilink. WeeWillieWiki (talk) 16:49, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

message: On the survivor note, the "Fana de l'Aviation" has had a news in the Nr 459 (Feb 2008) about the restoration of the Flying Heritage Collection (on page 7). It is reported that the plane, a FW 189A-1 matriculated G-BZKY and for which the matriculation N189FW on the US register has been reserved, is the WerkNr 2100 retrieved by Jim Pearce in northern Russia back in 1994. The military code of the plane was V7+1H then. It is reported that the plane was lost in a crash near Loukhi, Mai 4 1943, during a reconnaissance mission. The plane has been transfered to BMZ Air Service (Prague) and then to FlugWerk (Germany).Tourist.tam (talk) 11:00, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

message: The rear gunner's position pictured looks to me to be that of the BV 141 rather than an FW 189. In the asymmetric 141 the starboard (crew) boom was close to the engine boom, and the gunners position therefore had the shield seen to limit the gunner's arc in the direction of the single tail. He had an  otherwise completely free field of fire. it doesnt make sense to me for the FW 189 gummer to be completely unable to fire to his right (portside of the aircraft).

replies: text: Good catch - the cockpit window pattern doesn't match the Fw 189 either, but it does match the 141. - The Bushranger One ping only 05:05, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

text: As been implemented in the computer game "War Thunder" this glazed half-cone could be swiveled around along its axis by means of pulling it around with a handle, so "cone facing up, gun down" could (awkwardly) be changed to "cone down, fire upwards". Doing this in a dogfight may have required some "axis power".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.15.52.66 (talk) 15:31, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

message: Why did you revert my "break" html tag? It improved the appearance of the article by consolidating the width of the infobox. Wikipedia articles have an overabundance of appearance problems. For instance having an overly wide infobox that breaks-up section headings and prevents all but the shortist words to be placed after the infobox.

replies: text: Your change didn't make any difference to the width of the infobox, which is set by the photo. It merely introduced a large vertical space in the middle of a statement.Nigel Ish (talk) 18:54, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
