Junkers J1 was the first all-metal aircraft to go into series production anywhere in the world. This aircraft was manufactured in 1918 and was sent to Canada from Dieppe in May 1919, as a war trophy. It is the only complete Junkers J1 that exists in the world. This photo is copyright © WalAndPl, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
