Thank and i hope you can help me 

Hi Axel,

thanks for your interest im my Pamir model and for your kind words. As you have seen, my Pamir is representing the way she looked like when she went down in a hurricane near the Azores Islands in 1957. Due to some changes to the original ship, (as well as her sistership Passat way back in 1951/1952, the look differs a bit from the original build.

To get the (complete scratch built) model started, I used a  birthplace Blohm and Voss Hamburg construction drawing, adopting bulkheads and shape of the hull. I also purchased a construction drawing of shipyard Howaldtswerke Deutsche Werft in Kiel, resembling the changes in 1951/1952

There is a Revell plastic model of the Pamir (scale 1:250), of which I found a broken down torso for peanuts on Ebay. That plastic model is representing the Pamir of her look when she went down. This was a good aid for getting the contours, dimensions, and Deck arrangement right in scale. In my build log you will find, amoungst many other details, a scetch-overview of the deck housings vents, etc, with dimensions im (MM).

I wish you much fun and good success with your build

Best regards, Nils
