Its a bird, its a plane, its the Bachstelze. I have been reading the book "U-Boat Far From Home'' by David Stevens and they touched on the water tight compartment behind the tower that stored the Bachstelze in U-863 a type IX boat.

This of course made me go hunting for more information about this thing. I was shocked over the amount of hits I found on the net, most in German. They even have a prize winning model of this thing for all of you model fans. Any how two sites I liked:

[www.nasm.edu]

[home.snafu.de] site has nice photo set.

I justed wanted to share this information, take care...........
