Guys,

I am pleased with todays efforts wading through a load of junk but it has paid off. I really like the sea plane!

Hello.

Going from memory this is a Blohm and Voss plane. It was able to fulfill several purposes incl. observation, mine sweeping, transport and others. Unless memory tricks me as it does increasingly with age, it also transported refugees from East Germany during the closing days of the war.

I have some reference and should look it up.

Hi,

I think, that the seaplane is a Dornier Do 18, see e.g. the second picture in the row:

Guys,

Here is a scan which will be better than my photography skills, I think this shows it more clearly, I like the small war flag on the top like it's a boat rather than a plane.
