The Junkers W-33, Russian Dobrolet and Aeroflot designation PS-4 (Pochtovii Samolet 4) was an all-metal cantilever low-wing single-engined aircraft. Powered by 1 Junkers L-5 in-line water-cooled six-cylinder engine, this aircraft was capable to reach top speed 185 kph and fly 1000 km with cruise speed 150 kph. W-33 has a ceiling 4700 meters and posses a flight duration up to 5 hours.

Not for the fainthearted, this open cockpit.
The way it is built reminds me of the Ju-52, but single-engined and equipped w. floats.

Fun shots!

Thanks JW!

Not surprised it looks like a Ju-52, it was build by the same company, about 5 or six years before the 52...I think.

Great pics, I think that's yet another on my download list

maximum altitude 4700m? and an open cockpit? brrrrrrrr....

That's pretty nice.  Did they carry passengers?  I noticed the door on the side.  It would suck to fly in that thing with no windows!  8)

i think it was used for postal and freight delivieries only...

there were very few ju33's built, and one was even crated and shipped to canada,  one with floats of coarse

Hmm, odd plane, don't see how it can fly with that box-like fuselage, good shots though
