[vintage-and-warbirds] Restoration News: Heinkel He 219 Night Fighter

The He 219 wing is rolled out of the paint boothForwarded message - From: Steve Link steven_link



 
Can't wait to see this thing back together!!!!

Thursday, July 17, was an exciting day at the Paul E. Garber Restoration Facility, and another step towards the completion of one major aircraft currently undergoing restoration:  the wing of the Heinkel He 219 Uhu night fighter was prepared for its move to the Udvar Hazy Center in Chantilly, VA. The He 219 was Germany's best night fighter in World War II, and possibly the best night fighter of the war. It was a piston-engine aircraft specifically designed for night fighting operation — a status it shared with only one other aircraft in the war, the American Northrop P-61 Black Widow. Notable features include the first steerable nose wheel on an operational German aircraft, the world's first ejection seats on an operational aircraft, and cannons mounted to fire at an oblique angle (the so-called "Schräge Musik").

The easy part, using nothing but manpower: The He 219 wing is rolled out of the paint booth, standing 4 m (13 feet) high and about 19 m (63 feet) long.
