About the Junkers Flugzeug- und Motorenwerke Ju 52/3m

The Junkers Ju 52/3m, affectionately known as "Tante Ju" (Auntie Ju) or "Iron Annie," stands as one of aviation's most recognizable survivors from the 1930s golden age of air transport. First flown in 1932, this corrugated-metal tri-motor became the workhorse of Lufthansa's European network and saw widespread military service as a transport and paratroop aircraft during World War II. Its distinctive three-engine configuration and unmistakable corrugated duralumin skin made it instantly identifiable on any ramp, and its rugged construction allowed it to operate from unprepared strips across every theater of the war.

More than 4,800 were built between 1932 and 1952, with production continuing in France and Spain long after the German factories closed. The Ju 52's handling characteristics are gentle by taildragger standards, with a stall speed around 53 knots in landing configuration and a never-exceed speed of 180 knots, modest performance that reflects its 1930s design philosophy prioritizing reliability over speed. Cruise speed typically sits around 130 knots, and the three BMW 132 radial engines (license-built Pratt & Whitney Hornets) give it a service ceiling near 18,000 feet.

Today, fewer than a dozen remain airworthy worldwide, most operated by museums and warbird organizations offering passenger flights that recreate the experience of 1930s air travel. The type's continued operation nearly a century after its first flight is a testament to its solid engineering and enduring appeal. SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators, with the largest observed operator.
