"The Flugzeuge" brings us this classic newsreel footage of Dornier Do-J Wals contracted for postal service taking part in landing and recovery operations in the Atlantic. There are a few glimpses of the plane's suprisingly roomy interior, including the radio station. The enclosed cockpit on this model would be ideal for the Wals used by the Miskatonic expedition in Lovecraft's "At the Mountains of Madness".
Fantastic. Worth watching for the catapult launch sequence alone. Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteLet me know if you need pictures of the Wal's interior.
