There's a great book about all (or most) aircraft flown by Lufthansa:

Lufthansa: An Airline and Its Aircraft byR. E. G. Davies, published in 1991by Airlife Publishing; ISBN: 051757022X. I'd think there would be something in there about the 3 BV-222 they operated...

Here's a link to some detail pics of the beast...

Revell did issue the FW-200 as a civilian version, didn't they? Or maybe that was Italeri. I know Ive seen the Condor with non military markings, I'm sure those would be a good base to start with. The BV-222 as a airliner...would that make it a fantasy model?jkBig Smile [:D]
The only time you have too much fuel is when you are on fire.

Sorry - far as I can find from my references, the BV222 never operated for Lufthansa....so if you want any scheme, you'll have to dream it up! The aircraft was not pre-WW2.Smile [:)]
