"Captured Luftwaffe Warbirds" Luftwaffe in Foreign Service
Already some years ago, a
small studio named Atelier Kecay published the first volume
and in 2011 a follow up in volume two on captured Fw-190 Butcherbirds. First
book focused on British and American captured aircraft, and it is an
impressive volume, filled with great photos and colourful illustrations.
The second volume picks
up where the first one left off, providing information on some of the
smaller nations that captured Fw-190s. Since that wouldn't fill an entire
book, this coverage is supplemented with the small air forces that flew or
tested the Fw-190, such as Hungary and Japan.
The countries
covered in this volume include the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, South Africa,
Romania, Japan, Hungary, Spain, Turkey, France, Sweden, Czechoslovakia, and
Poland. There are also a few follow-up aircraft from the first volume, from
where new information provided additional details. Like the first volume,
this book provides extensive photographic coverage of these aircraft, and
complements the photos quite nicely. A very nice feature of these
illustrations is that the artist has done the aircraft as seen in the
photographs. That means that if the plane is missing the canopy and cowling
in the photo, they're gone in the illustration as well. That means that the
illustration has no interpreted markings or camouflage.
While
Luftwaffe Fw-190s have been covered extensively over the years, the captured
and small air force usage of the type opens up quite a bit of interesting
subjects for the modeler. This volume, coupled with the first, establishes
the best coverage of captured and foreign service Fw-190s out there, and as
such should form an essential part of any Focke Wulf reference library.

*** Hauptquellen zu den Bemalungen und historischen Daten Main Sources for the paintschemes and the historical information's
Nun die Aufstellung der von mir genutzen Bücher aus dem mittlerweile in Konkurs gegangenen Ateliers Kecay. Meiner Meinung nach die beste Quelle für die historische Darstellung der hier und in den Werken beschrieben Schicksale der deutschen Luftwaffe. The following list of published books by the now bankcrupt Atelier Kecay I used to complete the work on these paint schemes. In my opinion one of the best sources of historical facts about the descibed fates of the former Warbirds of the german Luftwaffe.
