Dornier Do C 3

07/30/2003. Remarks by Johan Visschedijk: "To increase climbing speed a Do C 2a was fitted with an additional smaller wing, becoming a sesquiplane. First flown on September 18, 1931 from the Bodensee (a large lake at the borderline of Germany and Switzerland) the conversion was not generating the foreseen improvement and it was not put into production. The three-seat Do 3 was the direct predecessor to the Do 22 used in Finland and Yugoslavia."
