Blohm & Voss BV 138
 

Just wondering whether anyone has tackled this beast... http://home.swipnet.se/our_stuff/Planes/BV138.htm

Awesome flying boat which focussed on recon and surveillance.

Bump !

This plane has to be done ! :arrgh!:

Great pictures, by the way. :hmm: :yep:

IIRC, there where plans to use this plane for u-boat re-fueling.

Other way around

The aircraft could be refuelled from uboats

Of course if you have these it would be nice to have a seaplane tender too
:rotfl:

Luftwaffe seaplane tenders :o
Not kreigsmarine

The Falke at Tromsø with a couple of Bv138

U-boats carried AVGAS???


No, I knew the BV-138 had diesel engines.









I did TOO!

Would have been surprised if you didnt
:rotfl:

Late last year, Denis469 mentioned that the Bv 138 was being worked on.

Haven't seen anything about it since :cry:

Do you have any further news for us Denis??.

I'm sorry, but my comp was damage in late last year and lost all graphic programm and many other. So I can not ended work BV-138. Model plane was sent by VAA and I unknow that was with it more...

Sorry with my english.

Denis; Thank you for replying so quickly....even though the news was not good!

I was also very sorry to read ( if the translation program was correct ) that your Russian forum has lost its ' home ' with Avia Forums.

Have you had any success in finding a new site yet?

Cheers

Cheapskate

First - news from me about BV-138 is't bad. May be VAA can do unit in USSR submarine mod, may be simple work unit. All may be....
Second - russian forum would be restart during 1-2 week in old adress. I wait it.

Ah! thanks for the better news on both subjects :sunny:

Hope VAA will be able to produce a Bv138.....will go very nicely with the Do 24T which you gave us last year :up:

I love the Dornier Do.24 too. Great plane. :rock:

Goes without saying that it has been added to my personal GWX installation (and scripted in its Aussie role of transport). :yep:

About
 

I write with VAA and, apparntly, BV-138MS would be.

Thanks for this Very Good news :D and for your help contacting Vaa.:up:

Can't wait to see this aircraft in the game!

Cheers
