Deutschlandflug (German Air Rally), late August 1933. 126 planes competed, of which almost two-thirds were Klemm L 25s, L 26s and Kl 32s. In the background are Junkers of Lufthansa. All the planes already wear the black, white and red flag on the right and the swastika flag on the left side as decreed by the new Nazi regime on 6 July. The odd one out is the Heinkel HD.22 bottom right, which was bought by the US Army for the military attaché in Berlin with serial 30-420! Photo from: Nationaal Archief (Netherlands)
