Heinkel HD 42 aka He 42

[Rottler]

Hello Stig,

the original “Luftfahrzeugrolle-B“ (LFR-B) is missing. In the February 1928 issue of the bulletin “Nachrichten für Luftfahrer“ (NfL) all registered aircraft of the “Luftfahrzeugrolle-B“ (LFR-B) were listed. From then on all new registrations and changes were published in the NfL. A complete work of the LFR-B was never published. You can find details in the website of the “Arbeitsgemeinschaft Deutsche Luftfahrthistorik“ (ADL) www.adl-luftfahrthistorik.de.
The book “Recherchen zur Deutschen Luftfahrzeugrolle 1919-1934“ (Investigations on the German Aircraft Register 1919-1934) is a reconstruction of the LFR-B and the NfL. There are the research results of Dr. Ernst Vocke, published in 1977 by Karl Ries without permission of Dr. Vocke. In this book 24 He HD 42 are listed:

D-1793 WNr. 333 registration February 1930.
