In May, 1945, after the end of the war, Major Götz flew this D-13 to the RAF base in Flensburg, Germany, and surrendered it. This airplane has been restored close to flyable condition, but it will not be flown because it is such a rare example of the Fw 190 line.
It does not say it is air-worthy at all. In fact, it states it is NOT in flyable condition now.

Really well I can't see anywhere that says its not in a fly able condition in fact they say it's close.
What they did say is they won't because of how rare it is, as madrebel has already explained.
