SECRETS NOAV KNOWN
German Focke-Wulf Plane LONDON, August 4. Britain now possesses the secrets of the Focke-Wulf 190 because one was brought down in good condition. It is the German answer to the Spitfire and has been in action for nearly a year, but only in recent months in large numbers. The Germans concentrated squadrons in Northern France in a vain attempt to stop the R.A.F.’s daylight offensive. The Focke-Wulf brought down landed on the south coast after a long fight in which it was slightly damaged and its petrol and ammunition were exhausted. The pilot was overpowered before he was able to destroy the plane. One of the features of the Foeke-Wulf is the high ceiling at which it operates at maximum, sneed.
