No, the entire dome was offset on the other side.

I'm not sure but I don't think that someone has build a reversed version of the He-111.

My best guess is, the picture is printed reversed. This happens from time to time. If you mirror the picture horizontally, everything looks much better, even the guy on top is wearing his wrist watch on the left arm as usual.

I think the aviation-orientated journalists found the picture and the more artistic orientated guy who had to arrange the front page found that the reversed picture gives a better optical impression in connection with the subtitles.

Everybody has his own priorities.

Has to be a reversed image, the hatch is on the wrong side too.

Way too many things are backwards for it to be a proper image.

But it was a good troll from He111 in the first place (well played).

So you are saying Casa's are made with blueprints back to front from the He111 ?



Casa with pilots hatch on left.

No troll just wanted an answer to a He111 related question. You can delete it if you like.

Just finally, so the CASA 2.111 had a opposite offset dome or did the magazine manipulate the picture ?

This discussion is still pretty closed to the original topic. I've seen much worse. No problem with that.

Looking for Images of CASA 2.111 on Google brings up several thousands of pictures with the dome on the right side. I vote for a reversed picture and definitely not for a reversed plane.

Sorry I thought you would know that there's only one type of pilot position manufactured for Casa/He111.

They are all left hand drive

The mag flipped the pic look at the unflipped one I posted.
