From PlaneSpottingWorld, for aviation fans everywhere

Bölkow was a German aircraft manufacturer based in Stuttgart and later Ottobrunn.

History

The company was founded in 1948 by Ludwig Bölkow, who since 1955 with Emil Weiland had developed helicopters for Bölkow Entwicklungen KG.


Later Bölkow merged with the Messerschmitt AG to Messerschmitt-Bölkow, and then the Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm (MBB). It was finally bought by Daimler in the early 1990s, becoming part of DASA, which became part of EADS in 2000.
