First flown in December 1941 as D-AVIU, this Ju 52 was leased and then sold to Aero O/Y by Lufthansa. It was damaged in Malmö, Sweden on 6 July 1943. Apparently it went to Germany for repairs as Ju52archiv says it was impressed by the Luftwaffe and crashed in spurious 'Savoja, Finland' on 23 March 1944 with a German military crew. Repaired. To ABA in Sweden in 1945 as SE-BUE, delivered from Germany? Eventually VH-BUU. This is certainly not a 1950s photo as indicated by the source. The aircraft in the background looks like a (captured) Tupolev SB. Photo from: Finnish Heritage Agency
