That’s one aircraft which I think looks better with its original Hispano engine. Still haven’t seen one of those in flight though I have seen the parafin burner a couple of times.

As far as I know, Schlepps were designated C-3605, as a turboprop development of the Hispano Suiza powered C-3603…
Is this a special version or an EFW “Typo” 🙂

BTW what is its civil reggi?

The reg. is G-DORN and it is a Dornier C-3605 owned by Robert Gray.

It’s a gloriously strange looking aircraft – would love to see it in the air.
