That's a beautiful plane. I'm definately picking her up. The crisp clean images are really becoming your trademark. Excellent series to show off this beauty.  :)

D.D.L.

DENMARK - OY

Danske Luftfartselskap AB - D.D.L. (Danish Air Lines) was formed in Denmark after the first world war in 1918 to fly services within Denmark and to the other Scandinavian countries - Norway and Sweden.

First Scandinavian flights were with a single seaplane which was used in place of landplanes due to the difficult terrain within Scandinavia. Very few airports existed and the landscape made it difficult to build them.

Domestic flights within Denmark were soon being flown by landplanes but the regional Scandinavian routes were served for some time by a fleet of seaplanes.

The landplanes DDL used during the 1930s included the Fokker F.12 triplane...

The Junkers Ju52/3m, which was used around the world by airlines at this time...

and the Focke-Wulfe Fw.200 'Condor' four-engined long-haul airliner.

DDL merged on 1st August 1946 with Sweden's carriers: ABA and SLA - Svensk Intercontinental Lufttraffik - and Norway's national carrir DNL - Det Norske Luftfartselskap - to form a new airline OSAS to fly the overseas routes for Scandinavia.

OSAS was renamed SAS - Scandinavian Airlines System .

Is it me or do the enigines on that model look slightly out of proportion.

They look just a bit to large in diameter in my opinion... :P

You found a FW Condor ! one of the few 4 engines built for the Luftwaffe during WW2. They used it mainly as far reconaissance aircraft over Atlantic to drive UBoots toward their preys.
