The Bv 141 was actually a very stable and maneuverable aircraft. It was perfect for observation. For its role as well, it had decent performance.
Just because an aircraft is not beautiful to look at, does not make it a bad aircraft.

Country:  | I have read on wikipedia that the crew suffered from increased motion sickness as the result of not being on the central axis, definitely not the most comfortable aircraft to ride in | |

Country: | Well the same problem would occur in the P-82 "Twin Mustang" and similar a/c. (Bf 109Z and other german Zwilling a/c, albeit you wouldn't be likely to make rapid maneuvers in the He 111Z) | |
