Re: FW 200 Condor 'star' names.
Hallo Snautzer,
Thanks for the reply. The star names I referred to were a later Luftwaffe style than the names of the Lufthansa airliners. They appear to have been only painted on the very nose of the aircraft which often makes them difficult to view in photographs.
So far in various publications I have seen references to 'Atair', 'Mars', 'Wega' (a C-2), 'Deneb' (F8+AH), 'Jupiter' (F8+BB), 'Aries', 'Merkur' and 'Polaris'. The first three named have photographic evidence. Also possibly 'Pollux' and 'Elektra'.
Regards,
Martin.
