In 1992 I had the pleasure of meeting an elderly German couple. Hans spoke of being a JU 52 pilot flying resupply missions to North Africa. Wonderful conversation and happy for it.
I flew over greater Johannesburg in the 80’s in our once pristine ZS-AFA ex SAA JU52 - the smell, sound and view over the huge corrugated wing with the obvious engine fuel gauge stalks and the crew working furiously throughout the approach, pumping and turning wheels and getting up then sitting down again, it was an amazing experience now quite rare since she’s now relegated to a museum, brought back to me vividly by this video... so thanks.
I too had the privilege to fly along east london coast at 100 foot with the windows wound down. An amazing experience. Today it cannot fly due to lack of tyres
I happened on this video and my mind went immediately to Stalingrad. I flew into Gumrak airfield near Volgograd two summers ago on a historical tour and also read much of the final evacuations of the wounded in 1942 as the Russians closed in on the Kessel during the dead of winter. That, plus being a former AF pilot, combined to make this more than just a pleasant aerial sojourn over southern Germany. Thank you for the touch of history.
Vielen Dank für diese Einladung um mit die Tante Ju in die Cockpit mit zu vliegen. Das wunderbare Gesumm von die 3 Motoren ! Herzliche Grüßen aus Antwerpen, Roger :-)
Thank you for a wonderful look at how the Ju52 flew. People back then were pretty brave to just getting into these magnificent machines and taking off, with just radio and dead reckoning for navigation, the winds and the elements in your hair, and only the pulleys, cables, corrugated iron, fabric and whatnot keeping you in the air ...
Great video, I love Albstadt and Degerfeld. I was once a member of the club and still have my flight logbook. A great place to learn flying and great people to be with.
My uncle who has since passed away, was good friends with a pilot who flew the Junkers Ju 52 during the war. He had carried Adolf Hitler around. One day, as they were coming in on opproach, the aircraft came under allied fire, and they had to ditch the plane near the edge of a forest. years later, the aircraft , was found, rebuilt, and flown to an airshow in upstate New York. I have that airshow book , with the pilots signature in it. Thanks for the video! Looks like an awesome ride !!
similar to the Ford Trimotor though - I guess the 2 were developed independently - engineering, yes, as for aesthetics (Junkers 88 a sort of ''ugly duckling'' I'd say), the Heinkel 111 - with the famous glass front - and Messerschmitt me 262- the 1st jet-powered fighter plane - very nice, in fact the Messerschmitt, I'd say, one of most beautiful of all time - in design and streamlined shape
Gorgeous scenery! Love the plane too. A very nice example. It was such a nice day, I would have thought the guys would hang their elbows out the windows. Wonderful vid - thanks for sharing.
I remember when i was a kid, i used to see this wonderfull plane, droping parachutists ( training ) near my town ( ENTRONCAMENTO ) in Portugal and it was from an air base - BASE Aérea 3 TANCOS - in the center of my country. All the kids was crazy when we saw this magnificent "BIRD". My phather- in- law, Sargeant José Pereira Ribeiro, was the engineer in a JU 82 crew. Thank you very much for this awesome video.
And just to help you, the correct spelling is "father", not "phather". The "ph" spelling is not very common in English. Far, from, fountain, front, father, friend, etc. Versu physician, physical, phobia, etc. In fact, I can't think of any words that aren't Latin that use the "ph" spelling.
Wunderschön. Das ist halt noch Fliegen. Hatte 1978 den PPL in Kempten-Durach/Allgäu gemacht. Leider habe ich ihn nicht mehr, zu wenig Flugstunden. Einer meiner Lehrer war ein alter Herr, Herr Müller, der im WK II die JU 52 geflogen ist. Und wenn ich das Video hier so sehe, dann kommt mir das ein bisschen vor wie damals auch die Flugstunden mit der Piper PA 18. Man hat die Bewegungen genau gespürt und hat noch mit den Händen gemerkt, was da in der Luft mit dem Flugzeug vor sich geht. Das schöne Knattern der Motoren hört sich einfach wunderbar an und man sieht auch hier im Video, wie die Piloten noch manuell und mit viel Gefühl jeden Handgriff machen und wie die Maschine reagiert. Das hat mit Videos aus dem Cockpit eines modernen Flugzeugs nicht viel gemeinsam. Danke fürs Hochladen.
It's my understanding this is/was a common practice. The B29s captured by the commies in WWII were copied by those snakes down to the B29 logo on the steering wheel.
I got to fly the CAF JU52 years ago. Crosscountry and airshows were great adventures. Perhaps the most fun of any aircraft in the CAF fleet other than fighters. The '"office" in this one appears to be beautifully restored.
Tolles Video. ..absolut Klasse. Ich hatte vor einigen Jahren die Ehre in genau dieser Ju einen Flug von Dübendorf aus zu machen. Ein absolut unvergessliches Erlebniss. Danke für das Video. Allzeit guten Flug!!
I watched all of them , very professional.Compliments. Im cameraman and i work as war corespondent in all over the conclict teritories for 23 years. But my intress is much more second WW. Bless you.
Three were flown to PNG 1950’s VH BUU VH BUV VH BUW I’m 71 and flew in them often from Madang Goroka. Near wet myself when left alone in cockpit for early morning run up sat 11yrs old. Many times watched them return on only two engines (Pratt & Whitney conversions) Great to fly. Again in your video thanks. Nicko
I had the pleasure of flying in the janvanriebiek in Za in the 80,s,I so remember the trimming of the flaps using the wooden wheel,also one of the passengers commented on the oil leakage from the radial motors only to be told a leaky motor is a happy motor ,what a plane😅
Wunderschönes Video, erste Sahne, kein unnötiges Gelaber. Er komt rüber, der Moment in dem du spürst, das Luft trägt, fliegen pur ! In diesem Jahr war ich noch bei LH im Ausbilddungszentrum in Frankfurt, wegen der neuen 747 - 8, ich liebe den Jumbo, aber was für ein Unterschied, beeindrukend.
@@Warbirdsbest aircraft I’ve ever seen and it’s also a amazing watch of what these pilots can do when flying such an old plane from the nineteenth thirties.
I can only imagine what it must have sounded like, and the smell just before paratroopers jumped from the aircraft, brave men in ALL of the forces ... they were just soldiers, after all, bless their souls!
I enjoyed the flight. I like the view, but my interest in the instrument cluster during the flight could have been more visible. The panorama for me could share equal time with views of the instrument cluster especially during landing and changing course through turns and altitude changes. All that said I appreciate the flight and great piloting.
I have loved flying since the wheels lifted off the ground on the very first Cessna I ever got a ride in as a little kid in 1971. A year later, I got my own stick time in a Taylorcraft BC-12. I have always preferred flight in an aircraft with real character and charm, and yes, even sometimes a little of what today's generations might call 'discomfort'. A sardine-packed, amenity-poor flight on a tubeliner these days (and no offense intended to my former Alaska Airlines Captain brother-in-law) lacks any of the charm of even early flights on Boeing 727s, Douglas DC-9s, and the glorious B-747 I spent the better part of two days on in an overlong deployment in the Air Force. Give me a flight on a plane with "round engines" any day. I've flown aboard a Ford Tri-Motor, the elder brother to the superb Ju-52/3m. I can only hope one day to get a ride on this find old bird. My compliments to the operators and company backers of the glorious Tanta Ju. That's what Golden Age flying is all about.
I used to listen out for the thunder of those 3 BMW engines on summer weekends when this Ju 52 flew over the Swiss valley I lived in. She went down in the Alps in August 2018 and all 20 on board were killed.
What is the co-pilot pumping/cranking on the final approach? The trim wheels don't seem to require anything like that kind of cranking to adjust them, and there are no landing gear to manually lower.

Great story!
Big Bill O'Reilly what's concerning is you know everything about Hitler and what he did.
Big Bill O'Reilly He still used a Ju-52 from time to time. Plus, his Condor was destroyed in a bombing raid during the war.
George Hassard Thats not really that concerning. Just because someone knows a lot about someone doesn’t mean they support him
A masterpiece of German engineering
Great👍
I'm actually related to the person that started the Junker company

Thanks for watching mate !
Great advertisement for BMW motors. Love those air cooled radials.
Thanks for watching !
I'm curious about why there is a BMW logo on the steering.
actually the BMW 132 engines, are a licence-built refinement of the Pratt & Whitney R-1690 Hornet
It's my understanding this is/was a common practice. The B29s captured by the commies in WWII were copied by those snakes down to the B29 logo on the steering wheel.

I got a chance to go inside a Ju-52 at Philly International Airport back in the late 80’s. It was flying under Lufthansa. Great experience.
Really great perspective . Thanks guys.fantastic.

Incredibly beautiful plane.
very nice the Sound of motors
Thanks for share this wonderfull video . I really enjoyed

I believe the BMW M sport car division had an ad that said " We used to make engines that fly. We still do".
14:06 these 3 red lamps flickering are showing low fuel or low oil pressure due to low rpm ?
Cool stuff
Bin selber 2017 mit der HOS ganz vorne mitgeflogen, ein tolles Erlebnis. So weit hab ich die Kamera allerdings nicht reingehalten.
is that one of the swiss planes closer to original than the Lufthansa D-AQUI which is finally grounded now?
Il vient de s'écrase dans les Alpes suisse du moins le même modèle. Vidéo très fidèle des derniers instants.
What a beauty
What is the co-pilot pumping/cranking on the final approach? The trim wheels don't seem to require anything like that kind of cranking to adjust them, and there are no landing gear to manually lower. Yet I can see him pumping or cranking something for a while. The pneumatic system is pressurized by the engines, isn't it?
Its trimming the elevator
If I ever get a ju-52 ( which I can only dream of) I will now know how to fly it.
Yes 🙌
