| Dornier B Merkur |
| Germany, 1925 - The Dornier Merkur
stemmed from the Komet series of the early 20's. Many of the later
Komet III's were converted to Merkurs, but the original DO-B was a
somewhat different type with an enlarged vertical tail, an unbraced
tailplane and large cut-out in the wing's center section. With the
crew in the open air, the Merkur was used by many airlines and was
licence-built in Japan. The largest Merkur operator however was Lufthansa,
with thirty in service. The Merkur made a number of record flights
and was the first aircraft to cross the Caucasian Mountains. |
