Ain't the internet great?
I know that Daimler (or DaimlerChrysler or Daimler-Benz, whatever makes your
boat float) also owns Messerschmidt, Dornier, part of Airbus Industrie, and
several other aircraft related companies as well, but they're probably
listed under a different coporate umbrella.
Cheers,
Jeff

Daimler is/was an English company, now a subdivision of jaguar (which
is of course a currently subsidiary of Frod).
To the best of my knowledge Mercedes isn't owned by anyone, but took
over Daimler-Benz after the war.
