Re: Box on Nose of Do 17 Z

The port wing also has two sensor/pitot tubes instead of just the standard one... Clearly a lot more apparatus for checking conditions whilst in flight than standard. I did look in the Wekusta book, but found nothing similar with regard to this strange apparatus. Although in fairness this could be the first time this particular aircraft has been photographed. Looks like it may have been on the ground a while, left unattended as the majority of the skin on the ailerons and flaps is missing. Snowy conditions, not sure if that has any relevance though.
