GazzaS Posted September 26, 2020 Posted September 26, 2020 Hi everyone, I've spent about four hours looking for a photo or drawing of the inside of the Dornier's crew entry hatch. I can find quite a few of the outside. But nothing useful for modelling detail. I've got a few of the ICM Dorniers, but the hatch isn't modelled at all. It's just a part of the fuselage unfortunately. If anyone has one.... I'd appreciate it greatly! Cheers, Gaz 2
Martinnfb Posted September 26, 2020 Posted September 26, 2020 06:30 a crewman is closing the hatch that has integral ladder build in. 2 1
Martinnfb Posted September 26, 2020 Posted September 26, 2020 In about 20 second mark you can see the frame of the ladder, or whatever is left of it. Superstructure is upside down 1 1
GazzaS Posted September 27, 2020 Author Posted September 27, 2020 Holy S*&t, Martin! You da man! Thank you very much! 2 1
GazzaS Posted September 27, 2020 Author Posted September 27, 2020 I'm just noticing that the interior color looks way too light to be RLM 66. Notice how light the interior framing looks. It totally contrasts with the 70/71 exterior. 2
Wumm Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 Most likely RLM 02. As in this interior photo from the earlier '17 P variant. Note the internal steps on the offset hatch, which was flat on the underside unlike the deeper dished cover of the '17 Z. This image may also help... S 3 1
Bomber_County Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 This may help......these for the camera installation, but the bomber version should be similar, without the 'bump' on the top half 3 1
Wumm Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 Nice find Phil! If you play with the contrast, you can also make out the recessed steps in the non-recon hatch, underneath the retractable ladder. S 2 1

Artful69 Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Nice work lads ... whoever said that a '32 scale of this kite couldn't be kitted because of lack of available visuals on details was kidding themselves ... I was just prepared to go grab my new Classics book ... and then all this info showed up. Lovely .... Rog 1
