confirming that the southern NSW, Albury based Fw-190 took to the skies again in early December 2016.

As you all may recall, the aircraft has been grounded for most of 2016 after it had its canopy damaged on the ground.

The December flights saw the Fw-190 airborne flying around southern NSW for 2 flights of 1 hr each, under the command of Steve Death.

I belief it is an original one?
