Dirk,

Ter info. Uitgeverij Snoeck uit Gent wil mijn Stampeboek uitgeven maar zoekt wel sponsors. Dat is hun standard werkwijze. Vind ik niet leuk maar het doel heiligt wel de middelen. Daartoe maakten ze deze folder die nu rondgestuurd wordt. Een voorverkoop aan potentiële lezers is schijnbaar nog niet aan de orde.

Ondanks mijn herhaalde vraag om me niet als 'oud-medewerker' van Stampe te betitelen, hebben ze dat genegeerd. Ik zou dan meer dan 100 jaar oud moeten zijn. Niet dat ik me soms zo niet voel…

Ben al blij dat ze er uithaalden dat ik mede-oprichter en bezieler van het Stampe Museum was.

Groetjes,

Jean Dillen

Video: "CONSTRUCTION OF BUCKER BU-181 AIRCRAFT RANGSDORF, GERMANY 73572"

CONSTRUCTION OF BUCKER BU-181 AIRCRAFT RANGSDORF, GERMANY 73572 by PeriscopeFilm This silent German educational film shows the construction of a Bücker Bü 181 Bestmann aircraft, one of the Luftwaffe's standard training airplanes throughout WWII. The prototype Bü 181 (D-ERBV) made its maiden flight in February 1939 with Chief Pilot Arthur Benitz at the controls. After thorough works and official flight testing by the Reichsluftfahrtministerium (RLM) the Bü 181 was nominated to be the standard primary trainer for the Luftwaffe. Series production of the Bü 181 commenced in 1940. The production types were designated B to C with only slight variations between each, and could be powered by the Hirth HM 500 A or B. The Bü 181 aircraft was a single-engine low-wing monoplane with fixed undercarriage, split flap, twin controls and two adjustable seats arranged side-by-side. The cabin section of the fuselage was of a tubular steel frame construction whereas the rear of the fuselage had a wooden shell. The wing assembly and tail unit were also of wooden shell construct... ©2016 YouTube, LLC 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066
