EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic moment as Junkers Ju52-3m D-AFER, registered in April 1934, approaches Croydon Airport for a landing. Piloted by Franz Buchner, this iconic aircraft, with the manufacturing serial number 4047, was part of the renowned Deutsche LuftHansa (DLH) fleet during the 1930s. The Junkers Ju52/3m, affectionately known as "Tante Ju" or "Aunt Ju," was a versatile and popular transport aircraft of its time. Its distinctive design, featuring a large fuselage and twin engines, made it an essential workhorse for various applications, including passenger transport, mail delivery, and military use. D-AFER's story is noteworthy, as it was impressed into the Luftwaffe during World War II. Despite its military service, this aircraft remains a symbol of aviation history and the early days of commercial air travel. The image, taken circa 1935, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the excitement and innovation of the era. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of aviation and the remarkable advancements in flight technology that have shaped the world we live in today. As we admire the beauty and grace of D-AFER in its approach to Croydon Airport, we are reminded of the pioneering spirit that drove aviators and engineers to push the boundaries of what was possible in the skies.
