Ex D-288, this F13 - not a Junkers-Larsen JL-6 - was used by Junkers' sales agency in the USA. In April 1928 it was active in the relief operation for the stranded W33 D-1167 Bremen. The co-pilot was Hugo Junkers' eldest daughter Hertha or Herta who ran the agency and was an aeronautical engineer. Her younger brother Erhard was also on board as a mechanic. In May, Hugo Junkers himself, visiting America, came to Ford in Dearborn with Herta and Erhard and the Bremen crew. NC87 to CF-AMX. Photo from: The Henry Ford

'B-LATB Fasan seized in Reval [Tallinn]'. We don't know why the constables took action. This F13 was operated by the Latvian airline Latvijas Gaisa Satiksmes, or Lettländische Luftverkehrs AG in German, on the Tallinn - Riga - Königsberg route. B-LATB crashed in October 1924 and was replaced by another B-LATB (c/n 570). This is assumed to be the first one because of the irregular application of the registration, with dots. The distinctive hangar belonged to the Estonian airline Aeronaut and confirms the location as then Lasnamäe airfield. Photo from: ETH-Bibliothek Zürich

This F-13 is one of a batch of seven seized as war reparations. On display in the Inter-war Years Hall at this super museum.

PLL Aerolot originated as PLL Aerolloyd in the Free City of Danzig in 1922. In 1925 the company was renamed, its German shareholders were bought out and the company moved its base to Warsaw. Six F13 aircraft are seen here, including P-PALP, P-PALR and P-PALG. P-PALF (c/n 776) was a recent acquisition in 1927, replacing P-PALF (c/n 625) which was lost in 1925. Aerolot merged with two other companies to form LOT in 1929. Photo from: Narodowe Archiwum Cyfrowe

'The seaplane harbour in Reval [Tallinn].' The seaplane hangars here still exist and are now part of the Estonian Maritime Museum. E-13 was delivered to Estonian company Aeronaut on 3 June 1923. It was used mainly on the Tallinn - Helsinki route. It crashed in January 1926. Seaplanes later began to use Lake Ülemiste where Tallinn's current airport sprung up.

The left half of the same original as photo 348021. This Danziger Luftpost aircraft does not yet carry its Danzig Free State registration Dz-35, but the German registration has been altered with a Z within the D. The coat of arms of Danzig (now Gdansk in Poland) contains two silver crosses above each other on a red shield, so the rudder is red.

This F13 has English-language instruments and was intended for John Larsen Aircraft in the USA as a JL-6, but seized by the Allied Control Commission in Germany and given to France in early 1921. It was already listed in the Musée de l'Air catalogue of 1922-23. Construction number 609 is apparently confirmed on an airframe part and it is not c/n 600 which was put to use in Belgium as a racing pigeon transport.

Junkers sent this new floatplane as a rescue aircraft in support of Roald Amundsen's planned flight across the North Pole from Alaska to Spitsbergen, known today as Svalbard. It arrived in Tromsø by ship on 21 June 1923 and made some local pleasure flights. By then Amundsen had cancelled his Arctic flight but on 1 July 1923 D-260, now named Eisvogel, was still shipped from Tromsø to Spitsbergen to make some pioneering flights in the archipelago.
