PROPAGANDA CONDOR:
Much published photo that has appeared in aviation magazines and books over the past decades. (SG+KS) later re-registered as (F8+AB) Werk Nr. 0043 or 0073.
Aircraft was reported as possibly shot down during attack on Convoy OB 346 in the Atlantic by anti-aircraft fire. Did you know at one time the Imperial Japanese Navy was interested in the Condor, but for one reason or another didn't follow through.
