Some guy posted in my thread on a different forum. He wrote a book about some FW190 models.

http://www.amazon.de/Die-Focke-Wulf-.../dp/3925480692

He does not have all info but some interesting stuff anyway:

Quote:
As far as I know it exist no photograph from the cockpit of the Fw190V18U1. The book contains various photos of the machine, also two diagrammes of the flight performances and a summary of the test results.
The book contains also the complete Focke-Wulf construction description Nr. 252 from 17.8.1942 about the Fw 190 with DB603 and an exhaust turbocharger.
The maximum turbocharger rpm was 19000. At 10 200 m height activated the overspeed trip unit and over this height the constant rpm was 19600. The turbocharger switched on automatically.

But at some point in time there must have existed a photograph of the cockpit, take a look at the cockpit drawing from that russian model kit. And why I think it's genuine: Where's the Revi? And the panel has a completely different setup compared with the A4-A9, the D9-D15 and even the Ta152 C & H.
