Re: German aircraft at Dakar July 1940
Hi Bian.
Seems Ju 90 or FW 200 whould have been more suitable for such long distance flights. FW 200´s (If I am correct) did fetch German sailors to Spain, Portugal and/or the Canaries around that time. I have this notes:
- D-ARHW DLH "Friesland" 27.07.1940 - Flew one flight to the Canary Islands in December 1940 (also to Algeria and Casablanca?) -
- D-ADHR DLH "Saarland" ret September 1940 - Flew one flight to the Canary Islands in December 1940 -
- D-AEQP DLH "Kurmark" September 1940 - Used for special flights to Algeria and Casablanca until October 1940
Not an exact answer, however could lead to one ´expert of experts´ by name of Gunther Ott, answering, maybe.
Best regards
