Ju-52 "Tante Ju"

IV.KGzbV 1, 1940

 

A new skin for the A-Team Ju-52C. Only the exterior has been changed, the original A-Team interior is too good to play around with.

 

The devil sitting on a bomb emblem was used by IV.KGzbV 1 until 1943.

This, sir , is a very interesting historic item. Happened about 25 km from where I live. A lot more Ju's on the beach and at nearby former Valkenburg airfield, just a few kilometers from here....
