Dornier Do24 T3 flying boat

Thanks Kelti, Dick, glad you like it.

Rami,
I appreciate it may be a 'what-if' mission/campaign, but unfortunately the Do24 was never used offensively. That's why I didn't add any bomb load to the ac.

Cheers

I´ve always liked the Do-24! There was one as a Gate Guardian at Oberpfaffenhofen Airport, near Munich in Germany, some years ago, but unfortunately it is gone now.

Thanks for this one, Shessi!
 
Cheers guys, she is a good looking bird.

Don't forget it wouldn't be here without the skill and generosity of Wim, the original Dutch Do24 model maker!

Cheers

Thanks Shessi

Hi Mark,

What a great looking aircraft.

Thanks for your efforts on this.:applause::applause::applause:

The Netherlands Navy used these in the Dutch East Indies.

Cheers,

Do 24

As Stuart says the Dutch East Indies Air force had some and when the war erupted in that area the surviving aircraft were used by the Australians around New Guinea ( incidently I did a very a very bad repaint of the Groundcrew CFS2 version many years ago when I was just starting out with the game - it's on Page 7 of my stuff - that's if Rami has sorted the link) -- perhaps our resident artists could do something along these lines.

Thank you sir, but it's the one at the foot of each of my posts that doesn't work - how do I correct that ?
 
Do-24 spin out

Hi folks,

looking for historical info on the Do-24 I stumbled on this first:

and then this:

Quite impressive, the aircraft was damaged but it's under repair and it should be back in the air soon.

Perhaps the 1930's era of flying boats it's not that outdated after all. Wouldn't water landing save passengers' lives in case of an emergency landing?
