The Fairey Fox was used principally by Belgium. The Fox VIR was a Hispano Suiza-powered reconnaissance model of which Avions Fairey at Gosselies built 24 for the Belgian air arm and two for Switzerland. However, the Swiss preferred the EKW C-35. The two Foxes were used as target tugs until 1945. Photo from: ETH-Bibliothek Zürich

The FK.50 eight-passenger airliner was ordered by the general manager of Alpar whom Frits Koolhoven had met in Davos in the spring of 1935. Three examples were built for this airline from Bern, this being the prototype. The second one, HB-AMO, soon crashed during blind-flying training but was replaced by the third, HB-AMA, an FK.50A with double tailfins. The type was well liked and operated Alpar's Bern-Paris-London service as late as 1946. HB-AMI was scrapped in 1947. The FK.50A even survived until 1962 when it crashed in Liberia as EL-ADV.

The Ju 160 was an improved development of the Ju 60, an unsuccesful competitor to the Heinkel He 70 Blitz. Seating was for six passengers. A total of 47 Ju 160s were built. Schakal (jackal) crashed in Czechoslovakia on 22 July 1936, only a few months old. Photo from: ETH-Bibliothek Zürich

Transadriatica from Venice operated the first postwar commercial flight in Italy from Venice to Rome on 14 April 1947, and on 16 December 1947 it inaugurated the first international service from Venice to Zürich - Dübendorf. Here we see the arrival of a negotiation party. The company used converted C-47s loaned by the Italian goverment and I-TRIS, formerly 43-49446, later served in the Italian air force as MM61799. Note the repetition of the I for Italy on the rudder in 1920s fashion. Photo from: ETH-Bibliothek Zürich

The USA presented 44-76310 to King Farouk of Egypt in March 1945, straight from the factory. It is seen here with 476310 in both Western and Eastern Arabic numerals, but was later reserialled to F3, and then to 113 when used by Nasser. Photo from: ETH-Bibliothek Zürich

The first ever visit of Soviet aircraft to Switzerland, flying in a delegation to demand the return of Soviet citizens who were somehow interned in Switzerland during WWII. Built by Douglas Oklahoma the front C-47, US serial 44-76715, was delivered to the Soviet air force as late in the war as April 1945. To civil on 28 April 1945. It seems to have washed-out white titles. The C-47 parked behind is CCCP-Л960 (c/n 26336 ex 43-49075) with what looks like a roughly painted out red star on the tailfin. CCCP-L976 / CCCP-Л976 came in the following day. Photo from: ETH-Bibliothek Zürich

Designed as an airliner and bomber, the Ju 86 saw more civilian use than the He 111. Swissair bought one Ju-86B-0, HB-IXI (c/n 860008) in 1936. It was soon damaged, returned to the manufacturer and replaced by HB-IXE. This machine became HB-IXA in 1939 when its Jumo diesel engines were replaced by BMW 132 radials. It crashed in July 1939. DC-2 HB-ISI is in the background here. Photo from: ETH-Bibliothek Zürich

Early He 111 fast airliner, one of a few delivered to DLH in 1936. In reference to the single-engined He 70 Blitz the type was called 'Doppel-Blitz'. Koolhoven FK.50 HB-AMO is visible in another shot, probably taken on the same day, thus dating the photos before 10 September 1937, the crash date of the FK.50. Photo from: ETH-Bibliothek Zürich

The prototype of the HP-42/HP-45. The HP-42 model, called HP-42E by Imperial Airways, was intended for services to India and South Africa and the fleet was based in Cairo. Here Hannibal is seen in Switzerland though, probably during initial testing. Photo from: ETH-Bibliothek Zürich
