    A model of the Dornier racing seaplane which was projected for competition in the 1929 Schneider Trophy contest.
    Dornier's 1929 design for the Schneider Trophy made use of the experience gained on the Wal of push-pull twin engine nacelles but it was never proved that the tail mounted on the floats would have been satisfactory in use.

    A German Schneider Trophy Challenger? This sketch shows a model exhibited by Dornier, and representing a design for a racing seaplane. The two engines are intended to be of 1,000 h.p. each, and the long floats, of unusual cross-section, extend aft to carry the tail. The inset shows the section of the floats in the neighbourhood of the single step.
