There is on He 111 E-3 at Museo del Aire, Madrid, wich was delivered to Legion Condor in 1938.

The plane seems to be complete. There is a picture of the plane, and cockpit-shot of the instrument panel. Go to http://www.preservedaxisaircraft.com/ for a closer look.

Yes I saw that site where the aircraft is on display.
Here that picture of the instrument panel


Well it is a aircraft that was used in the Battel of Britian, the Spanish Civil War, and the Sino-Japanese-Conflict, so it would cover many fields of interest in SoW.

Well you know yourself before one gets one flyable bomber at least ten flyable fighters are made, and in doubt a lot of times it is for the allied side. So I would not worry about that. I am fairly sure with in a short time the allies will have a gain at a ratio of at least 2:1 more planes available then the axis side. Especially as the demanding for the countless dweebfires is going to start as soon as the game is out.

It's not really any developers' faults that bombers are really hard to make and that there were only really four german fighter types that saw extensive use during the war, to be fair. There's the question of what the majority interests are that developers would prefer to address first, as well.
I would love to see this aircraft, though. Nearly anyone would agree that the Spanish Civil War is long overdue being the subject of a decent game. It is a pity.

as long Maddox keeps his planesets scenario related...................
what 3.party guyes will do (when the SDK tool are out) nobody can control, its thier spare time and they can choose what they want to modell (as it is now already )

but as far the actual informations are , the RAF will be realy lacking in flyable bombcarriers. Only the Blenheim Mk.IV , and that means a bombload of max 1000lb ......... IIRC

the axis will have Ju88, He111, Br.20, Ju87 and most problay fighterbombervariants (if not Maddox is making a big mistake !) of the 109 and 110.

therefor a RAF bomber with a higher load is high priority for me , first choice was the Wellington because it is already as AI in game. second would be a HP Hampden (max 4000lb bombload), a pilots plane with even a forward firing gun and the possibility to arm it with a torpedo

Well it is only during the early stages of WWII that the axis has a slight edge on bombers, but as soon as the heavies come like the Halifax, Sterling or Lancaster, there is hardly anything on the blue side as a counter balance, and I am certain red will in time get those heavies....where as blue maybe with an awful lot of luck a He177 or a flyable Fw200.....although I need not even hope for my absolute favorite the Do24 which did a lot of SAR missions also during BoB. Guess that is the problem when you are not a dead fish, and swim against the current!
