Messerschmitt M 28

Pioneer and Early Aviation Aircraft

The Messerschmitt M 28 was a mail plane developed in Germany in the early 1930s to meet a requirement of Deutsche Luft Hansa. It was a single-engine low-wing cantilever monoplane of conventional design with an enclosed cockpit and a fixed tailskid undercarriage. Despite successful trials Luft Hansa changed its requirement and did not buy it, possibly in part because of the enmity of its director Erhard Milch towards Messerschmitt. It was Messerschmitt's last attempt to sell a commercial aircraft in Germany, after which the company returned to sport aircraft. The specification gives a 390 kW BMW-built Pratt and Whitney Hornet engine and a maximum speed of 260 km/h.
