Lovely shots Kris! Great to see you back on full power!

About the slowness of the Ju-52.. 2 years ago they showcased it by flying the Ju so slow that she was overtaken by a bike-rider..  :D

The reason I'm not flying this wonderfully designed airplane...I could fall asleep behind the controls...and even wake up before it crashes. ;D

It must've been the one that circled over downtown Hannover about one and a half years ago.

Sighting #2 was at the ILA '06.

Part of the reason for it's 'speed' was the corrugated skin which gave it great strength, but also great weight.  Wasn't there a company who bought one, and was flying pleasure cruises around London ?

Lovely shots Omag. I was fortunate enough to see 3 different examples of the Tante Ju in the air last year. The first I've ever seen.
