D-3131  Junkers Ju 52/3mge                               (c/n  J4041)

                                 

                                      Whatever photographs I received from Lufthansa in the 1950s of their pre-war aircraft, all of them
                                       had the dreaded swastika removed.  I cannot, therefore, portray them as accurate historical images,
                                       hence will leave them out entirely.   The only other shots I have of Deutsche Luft Hansa aircraft from
                                       the 1920s-1939 era are from pamphlets and publications.  Up until 1931 German civil registrations
                                       consisted of D- followed by numbers.  These were replaced by lettered sequences and D-3131 be-
                                       came D-ARAM .  All DLH aircraft were named, this Ju 52/3m being "Werner Voss".    It was
                                       seconded to (requisitioned by) the Luftwaffe in 1939.
