Re: Sm 91
Hello,
the Sm91 and the Sm92 were both tested by Werner Lerche and the Sm91 was flown to Reschlin... I had a look to the Flugbuch of Werner Lerche... his opinion of both planes are pubblished on italian books...
The Fokker G1 inspired Ing. Marchetti for the design of the Sm88... an aircraft wich was test flown as Sm91 prototype No.1 and that had a completelly different central nacelle from the Sm91... it had a defensive turret and a bomb bay... Prototype No.1 was destroyed during a test flight and I got photos of the up side down plane and the story from the engineer who had this flight accident... in fact all known photos of the Sm91 are of the second prototype...
Take the above info as they are cause the only probe of wath I wrote lie in my personal archive and there's no known photos of the first prototype of the Sm91 except the one in my possession...
Best regards...
