Ok...this is the Udet 12b D-822 with a Sh14 motor 115 HP. Udet used this plane 1933 when he was touring on his second trip to the US.

Nice photos 

As far as i know there is no airplane museum at the Franfurt airport, only a Bf108 Taifun. But there is a project to start an Euler Museum near Frankfurt:

Looks very promising they have Technical University of Darmstadt and Frankfurt airport and some technical guys from Lufthansa as sponsors.

Let me guess: otvorena kabina zatvorena means something like open the cockpit?

Combat Warplanes / The identify the plane thread

« on: February 06, 2008, 03:45:52 PM »

I thought it might be useful to open such a thread if someone of our members has a photo in their collection and does not know which plane is on it.
I can say for myself it happens quite often for me 

Today i had this one in the mailbox. I have hoped it could be a Sopwith 1 1/2 Strutter but im not very sure about it. Also i think its after war. The observer and pilot have some headsets on and the observer has something like an early radio or transmission device if i see it right

I think you are right Letipapa. It is written here it had hanging cylinders so that above you had more space to install guns (2xMG 17) fired through propeller blades. Between the cylinder benches there could be installed 1xMG 151/20 which was installed in the empty propeller shaft (thats interesting). Additionally 1 MG151/20 could be placed "under" each wing. So there must have been something like a gondola to carry them.

see in the pic how where they were installed.

As for the motor of 109g3 and 109g4 i read in the pdf, one coolant exchange tank on the left and right engine bracket. One coolant cooler under the right and left wing. Automatic cowl flap with compressed oil via thermostat.
Switch-off of the coolant cooler out of the cooling circuit after a "damage" possible with the help of switch-off valves. Cowl claps ("Kühlerklappen") connected with landing flap (air break).

gzus this aviation vocabulary is hard to translate. I hope its a bit understandable
