A seaplane in the bay of Vathy
Good morning,
1942, bay of Vathy/Samos, the island is under Italian occupation One can see a seaplane and i`m asking: Is this an Italian one? It seems to me like an Arado 196. What do you mean? regards Byron Last edited by byron-; 3rd June 2017 at 18:00.

Hi Byron,
It doesn't appear an Ar 196 to me. I've a pile of pictures of this type at sea plane base Schellingwoude, but the shapes doesn't resemble the one on you picture. Just a thought: Junkers W 34 float plane? Regards, Hans

Perhaps someone with better photo enhancement tools may disagree but I think it looks like a Ju W34.
Sorry for repeating you, Hans. We were typing at the same time.

Re: A seaplane in the bay of Vathy
The large tail-fillet makes this a Ju W34hau, judging by the elongated engine cowling.
Regards Tom
