		Op 12 augustus viel KG 2 Manston in Kent aan, dropte 150 bommen en zette het daar gelegen vliegveld voor een dag buiten gebruik.
		De meest bekende Do 17 eenheid, KG 2, was op het eind van juli teruggetrokken naar het Westfront en tegen augustus bijna volledig heruitgerust met de nieuwe Do 217 E. De laatste operationele Do 17 eenheden waren de drie N.Aufkl.Staffeln met basis in Rusland.

	Dornier Do 17 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Dornier Do 17, sometimes referred to as the Bleistift ("pencil"), was a World War II light bomber produced by Dornier that was used at the beginning of the war by the Luftwaffe.
		The successor of the Do 17 was the Dornier Do 217.
		In 1933 Dornier thought it would enter the market as well, and started the design of a fast twin-engine plane in response to a Lufthansa tender, and the Do 17 was the result.

		The Dornier Do 17, sometimes referred to as the Bleistift (Eversharp pencil) by its pilots, was a World War II light bomber produced by Dornier that was used for a short time by the Luftwaffe.
		Even then the Do 17's were butchered over England; for all the trouble spent developing the Do 17, the Luftwaffe was better off without it.
		The Do 215 was developed as an export version of the Do 17Z series, but fitted with the much more powerful 1,075 hp Daimler-Benz DB 601[?]A engine.

	Do17
		The Dornier Do 17 became obsolete very soon after the start of WWII and was replaced by the Do 217.
		With the strain being put on the Do 17's airframe it was decided to use a Do 217E to test the bigger engines in the development of a ramjet engine needed to power a supersonic aircraft.
		As well as testing engines the Do 217 was used to test a number of prototype aircraft such as the Messerschmitt P.1073 (Me 328) light fighter, with the little Messerschmitt being mounted "piggyback" fashion the mother plane.

		The last of the slender models were the Do 17 M and N both with 1000 hp radial engines, and the similar Do 17 P for reconnaisance and the Do 17 Kb exported to Yugoslavia.
		Though rather small and lighter than the other Luftwaffe bombers the Do 17 Z was like by its crews, because it was extremely maneuvreable, had no flight limitations (it could dive at full throttle) and had a reputation for getting home after being damaged in action.
		The Dornier still too a mauling in the Battle of Britain and were withdrawn to the Russian front in the spring of 1941.

	Talk:Dornier Do 17 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Do 17, Von Origional Zum Modell (German for "From original to model") says that, like the He-111 and Ju-86, the Do-17 was built with a duality, with an eye to be either transport or a bomber.
		Sorry to say, but the whole story of the genesis of Do 17 is a pure invention.
		It has also been alleged that the prototypes after their return to Dornier by Lufthansa, languished at the Löwenthal factory until stumbled upon by chance by one Flugkapitän Untucht of Lufthansa, a former Dornier employee, who proposed to the RLM that the aircraft be adapted as a bomber.

		The design had military potential, however, and a fourth prototype (Do 17 V4) with twin vertical tail surfaces and a shortened fuselage was flown in the summer of 1935.
		The Do 17Z-1 had an additional nose-mounted MG 15 but was underpowered and restricted to a 1,102 Ib (500 kg) bombload; this situation was rectified in the Do 17Z-2 which with 1,000 hp (746 kW) Bramo 323P engines could carry a 2,205 lbs (1000 kg) bombload and up to eight MG 15 machine guns.
		Final bomber variant was the Do 17Z-5 which, generally similar to the Do 17Z-2, differed by having flotation bags in the fuselage and in the rear of the engine nacelles.

	The Dornier Do17
		Dornier constructed a number of aircraft that were later to be dubbed the "Flying Pencils" due mainly to the long thin outline of the fuselage.
		The first flight of the Dornier was on November 23rd 1934, and was rejected by Lufthansa and the prototypes were left in a hangar, only to be discovered a few years later by Robert Untucht who was the air ministry liaison officer, and a test pilot with Lufthansa.
		There were a number of variants of the Dornier Do17, but late in 1937 a variant was called for by the RLM (German Air Ministry) for a heavier variant that could carry a greater bombload, greater fuel capacity and be able to accomodate any range of power plants.

		The bombload of the E-1 was a measly 500 kg, hardly 10% more than the contemporary Bristol Blenheim's, and the two defensive MG15 machine guns were in a hut on the roof and a small hatch in the floor that offered almost no angle of fire.
		Still the Do 17s (as well as Junkers Ju 88s and Heinkel He 111s) were butchered over England.
		The Do 215 was developed as an export version of the Do 17Z series, but fitted with the much more powerful 1,100 hp (809 kW) Daimler-Benz DB 601B-1 engine.

		Other Dornier designs followed after these but it was the 17E and F to which this nickname was truly apt.
		During the early 1940's the two Dornier variants were widely used during the german invasion of Europe and also in attacks against England but later these two svelte-looking aircraft types were withdrawn from front line service although several of the reconnaissance-bomber F versions continued operations in the photographic role until quite late in the war.
		Popularly dubbed "the flying pencil" in both Germany and Britain, the Do 17 was not planned as a bomber and secretly teste as a civil transport; its history was the other way round.

	::Dornier Do 17::
		The Dornier 17, along with the Heinkel III and Junkers Ju 88, were the mainstay of the German bombers during the Blitz on Britain and especially London.
		In the days of the Battle of Britain, the Dornier 17 had been an easy target for the Spitfires and Hurricanes of Fighter Command but had proved itself to be a valuable part of the Luftwaffe in campaigns that led up to this battle.
		It made its mark in the attack on Poland in September 1939 and its versatility was such that it was used as a bomber, reconnaissance plane and as a pathfinder by the Luftwaffe.

	Junkers Ju 88 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The draggy fuselage was modeled after its predecessor, the Dornier Do 17 but with fewer defensive guns because the belief still held it could run away from fighters.
		Its faster speed did not prevent Ju-88 losses greater than its Dornier Do 17 and Heinkel He 111 stable mates, despite being in smaller numbers than either.
		A blizzard of field kits were made to make it less vulnerable, including changing the single rear gun to two side-by-side guns, and adding armour to the cockpit.

	Dornier Do 17
		The Dornier Do 17 was one of the main Luftwaffe weapons during the period of German Blitzkrieg victories during 1939 and 1940.
		The Do 17 would prove to be the most vulnerable of the German medium bombers over Britain, and would be largely withdrawn from the front line during 1941.
		Some Do 17 pilots were able to escape attack by going into a high speed dive, but that then prevented them from carrying out their bombing mission.

		The 17z-7 was not satisfactory either, so an entirely new nose was made, with nearly double the armament of the 88c, the 17z-10, and that was the arrangement used in all future versions.
		Fact: Production was switched from the 17 to the 217, the natural successor of the 17, but until the design was perfected and enough could be made, 88's filled in the growing losses.
		Dornier and the Luftwaffe recognized the 17's limits, which is why work began on a new design using the best parts from the old deign.
