A very interesting photo as D-AKYI is not a known registration. No information about date and place but the Nazi war flag flown here dates from November 1935. The Ju 52s seem to be Ju 52/3mg3e bomber/transport planes. Our hunch is that this picture may show aircraft departing to Spain to help Franco airlift his troops from Morocco to start the Civil War in July 1936. Few details are known about this airlift. Ju 52s presumably reached Spain via Fascist Italy, but would have needed to overfly Austria which still existed. This might explain improvised civilian registrations. Note that the D prefix is not entirely certain. Photo from: Life

As far as I can find out the true identity of this airframe has never been established. It is often said to be c/n 19458 ex N3433E, but that airframe was discovered in the Basler store at Oshkosh in July 2010. It is painted to depict SC-47A 43-15732 which was destroyed when it hit high ground near Bao Lac, South Vietnam on 11th February 1962.
