Hi folks!


I want to start a new discussion about the Do 335 W.Nr. 240113. During checking all my books and magazines for photographs of the Do335 I found a very intersting one.
In Jerry Crandall's Wings of the Black Cross Number Two published in 2004 there is a photograph showing the 240113 in damaged condition at Bindlach. At the right wing there is a „small“ detail that doesn't fit to the known history that this one was a Do335A-1. At the right wing you can see the canopy of the second cockpit.


So it seems the plane was in real rebuilt to a double seater Do335A-11 and made the crash as double seater and not as single seater.



Would be interesting to know what you think about that.


Cheers, Simon


Attached is the first preview of the Do335 2410113 as double seater in profile. Please apologize the watermarks. Many parts of the drawing are spekulativ. It's not know if it had MG fitted and if it had a REVI. As 240112 and 240114 had RLM 02 painted oil coolers I decided to show them the same way. Lower sides were unpainted same as the other series double seaters.
