Thanks, John. I've saved that site for later.

Seems I've got 3 or 4 of them already.

The page Ajay has posted contains the profile I wanted to send you - taken from Smith& Creek´s: Jet Planes of the Third Reich.

What makes me always wonder looking at the drawing - how is the main spar able to penetrate the jet engine and still is able to support the outer wing

... must be German ingenuity - never heard of "SIEMENS - Lufthaken"? ;\)

Fran,

I'd thought about that too. In fact, in the interest of keeping some sense of reality for this plane I removed all ordinance attachments on the wings on the supposition that the turboprop engines would have been more stressful on the wing structure.

I did add the 2 ordinance attachment points under the front fuselage as on the fighter-bomber variant.
