    P3 Advanced- Signal booster?

    Reading between the lines, FW-190 (German fighter aircraft) was probably referring to the Battle of Britain which occurred in 1940 in the skies over England. If so, that would make him about 10-12 years old at the time,even if he's about 88 now. Probably didn't fly in that one..
