Zeppelin Staaken R.VI (Av) 35/16 Help

Hi All,

Maybe I ask more concrete.

I seek information about used camouflage, the turbo type and method of installation on this plane (R.35/16). Probably mount of the turbo and type is different like on R.30/16.

Regards,
Piotr

Zeppelin Staaken R.VI (Av) 35/16 Help

Hi Stephen,
Thanks for the helping me.

There is any chance to sow xero or pdf from C&C?

The port engine nacelle from the R.35/16 Staaken now is preserved in the Polish Aviation Museum in Cracow in Poland. Last week I inspect it and think the turbo installation must be different than on R.30/16. I need photographs to find type and method of the supercharger installation on this plane.

By the way, I see (through my big brother internet eye) how some modellers make the Stakken.....
Gentlemen, please look little to the pictures, not all in Roden model is perfect...

After I finish my article I send you pdf (of line of course), and maybe after publish it in Model Hobby (Polish Modeller Magazine) put it in to this web page.

Cheers,
Piotr
