For sale.

One "last survivor" restoration project... https://www.aircraftrestorationcompany.com/fw189




$1.5 million (US) to buy the aircraft, and an estimated $2 million (US) investment needed to complete it. Being sold from the estate of the late Paul G. Allen.

They were both competing for the same RLM specification, but Focke-Wulf went for two engines rather than the expected one.
