Blohm und Voss
This company began as Hamburger Flugzeugbau GmbH, a subsidiary of shipbuilders Blohm und Voss of Hamburg. It produced some unconventional aircraft before being renamed Abteilung Flugzeugbau der Schiffswerft Blohm und Voss in 1937. A large new plant at Hamburg Finkenwerder then built flying boats.
