Seen this? He 119…and I thought the DH Albatross was a beauty

Wonderful to come across a German aircraft hitherto unknown to me. Similarly ignorant? Enjoy…

It looks like the inspiration for one of the aircraft in the Japanese film “The Wind Rises”.

I hadn’t realised that the linked page takes you, via the index, to many weird, very interesting types. Paired in-line Klimovs, anyone?

I think I had seen this before. Either way, I think it’s rather bizarre-looking. The wierd inline cockpit, and it looks way oversized for one (I realise it’s actually two) engines, in the same kind of way as the Wellesley.
