Ok Thanks I searched that site but didn't see it till now. Glad it wasn't a snake.

I am gathering all the info on the weapons which were on the Ju-290 and Fw-200 to get the proper weight for the Ju-390V-2 which is rumored to have flown to a spot near NYC. I have the BMW-801D information sorted and now working on the extra weight over the Ju-390V-1 by arming it like the Ju-290A4.

next is the fuel load..It appears the V-1 load was 9007 US gallons but the V-2 is supposed to have six auxilary tanks installed in the cargo bay (I think 550 Imp Gal each)

Thanks
