Photo Comment

This was one of twelve Ju 52s that landed on frozen Lake Hartvikvatnet near Bjerkvik, Norway on 13 April 1940. All were abandoned and sank when the ice melted in May 1940, but five were recovered in 1986. The one seen here originally carried code VB-UP, but is now painted with fake codes "VB-JA" on the right side and "CA-JY" on the left side.
