I hope it's not too late to resurrect this thread instead of start a new one, and ask if anyone has any news on the various Dora projects? There's a healthy number of Antons flying including the real one, I figured at least one Dora would have flown by now.

Fw-190D-9 W.Nr. 210096 now with the Collings Foundation. - Not sure if they have actually started on it at Gosshawk. Could be part Flugwerk.

Fw-190D-9 W.Nr. 400616 completed as static display rebuild in Austria, not airworthy - sold and now in storage in Texas I think. To fly you will have to start over.

Fw-190D-9 W.Nr. 211028 wreckage owned by Jerry Yagen

Fw-190D-9 W.Nr. 210102 airworthy rebuild with Eric Vormezeele with Flugwerk parts - no new update in years, website links dead

Fw-190D-9 W.Nr 210968 the Lake Schwerin recovery - still working on it, limited funding. It will be hung from the Luftwaffe Museum ceiling when complete I think

And the Flugwerk Fw-190D-9/N with Jerry Yagen - planned to be refitted with a Jumo 213. The Jumo looks nearly complete at Vintage V12s. No info if the airframe is ready to install the new engine or not. Some comments elsewhere that the project is not a priority for Yagen
