Had to look further into this powerless bird.
Found out more, of course, but the interesting part was
deeper in the article:

"Hamburger Flugzeugbau was an aircraft company, located
in the Finkenwerder quarter of Hamburg, Germany. The
company was established in July 1933 as a subsidiary of
the Blohm & Voss shipyards as part of the German Nazi
re-armament program. It has managed to survive under
different names as part of different consortia, and became
part of the present day ***Airbus and European aerospace***
program."

Verrrry Interesting!
