Sorry about the confusion. Using Google, I found some Danish and German
sites that spelled "fiss dur", for example. I should know enough logic to
realize that a few such examples do not prove that the correct spelling 
is not
"fis dur". Of course you are right that the correct spelling is -is and 
-es both
in German and Danish.
