But not the floating ones! The Zeppelin Werke Staaken... an all wooden bomber. They needed 42(!) men, just to push her out of the hangar! 4 Engines - each on either side of the wing... Early designs, you gotta love 'em!  ;D

Look at all those wheels!

The office... not much need for gauges in those days...

Cut up wing, but just to show the engine, the pistons actually work! Love the detail on this one!

Found her over at avsim!

Hi Omag:

I can't remember where I saw the article on that aircraft but if I remember correctly it was of Russian design.

I could be wrong it was a long time ago.

Thanks for posting it :).

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug
