Jan, if you're talking about what it looks like INSIDE the casing, under the hatches, no, but if you want pictures of the hatches opened and the loading gear set up, I have a couple pictures of those and one picture (not a very good one) of the torpedo cannister on the outside of a type X.

Thanks Pat! Any picture is very welcome.  ;D
I meant the undersurface of the hatch itself.

Just like to say hello.
Found this forum while looking for info on the U-711. Finding this thread was like winning the lotto.
I had the crazy idea of building the u-boat that sank HMS Bluebell, Which I am building at the moment.
Untill now this is the only place that has any form of detail information on the u-711 that I can use!
I will be watching very closely!
This will be my first sub and my knowlage is limited to that fact it was a VII C. So as you can tell I have a lot to learn!!!
I will be asking loads of questions, but first I need the kit. Harder to find these days now that revell have pulled it.
Found one on eBay.de so just waiting for it to dock.

At least I found the pic of Kpt.z.S. Lange with the polarbear on taucher.net, which is a good source concerning U-711.

Some pics of the actual state of my project are com
