Thanks Ira,

 

I've seen it a few times in Chandler when it was part of the Champlin 
collection and probbaly have a labled photo somewhere of it.

 

My favorite fighter when the museum was still in Arizona was the FW-190, 
which did not seem to find its way to the Seattle Museum of Flight. I 
suspect it was grabbed for a private collection.
