Heinkel He 59 seen in Kampf um Norwegen - Feldzug 1940.

The Heinkel He 59 was a German biplane floatplane with two V12 engines used by the Luftwaffe during WW2 for torpedo bombing and reconnaissance. During the Battle of Britain, some were dedicated to SAR duties and painted full white with Red Crosses. Otherwise, they performed transport tasks and patrol late in the war, two of them under the Finnish colors (but they flew only four missions during the four month length lease). Last flights occured in 1944.

A total of 142 (or 166 ?) of these aircrafts were built between 1931 and 1939.
