Ar 196 video - Luftwaffe and Allied Air Forces Discussion Forum

The Ar 196 V4 (D-OVMB) shown in the first part of the video was at Travemünde for seaworthyness trials. This video was shot on December 8, 1938 with Helmut Schuster at the controls. This test sealed the fate of the center float Ar 196.

"Other than that, Helmut, how was the flight?"

(Please forgive me for the post, I just couldn't help myself)

Okay, so this isn't an Ar196, but I thought some footage of another seaplane would be welcomed... this time, a Heinkel He115... no engines dropping off, either... !

...and on the top of this you see in fact 2 He 115 - VF+UY and NO+GW.
