Re: Do 17 related questions

Hi Boris
I am not sure I suppose that Do 17 had been lost in one of American attack, I do not exactly rember where I had found this tip. the Blenheim (also ex-VVKJ) also could be smashed by the bomb.
There are about 4 phots of Do 17 in RHAF hands (of course there are more I suppose), so I have seen so far 4.

Re: Do 17 related questions

Hi Boris,

Do you know of any good 3- or 4-view line drawings of the Yugoslav Do17s? I am trying to establish how they differed externally from German Do17s.

Is your book available yet?

Cheers,

Sid.

Re: Do 17 related questions

The best drawings to my knowledge were published in AVIONS more than ten years ago. As our book got bigger and bigger, at an early stage I decided with my coauthor to drop the technical drawings (the same almost happened to the profiles). The main difference between Do 17M and Do 17Ka was in engines and nose section. You'll surely find it easy to recognize all the details when you get the book as there will be plenty of photos and explanations. The book is finished and is currently prepared for print. I estimate that it will be certainly published in two to three months. There are about 200 photos, 32 profiles, more than 160 pages A4.
I will be regulary informing about the progress of it.
