The last departure of the Hungarian Lockheed 8A Sirius. As NR115W Justice for Hungary, it had been flown across the Atlantic by György Endresz and navigator Sandór Magyar in July 1931. It became HA-AAF in Hungary. On 21 May 1932 Endresz and Gyula Bittay, who had replaced Magyar, went to Italy to attend the Congress of Transoceanic Airmen, but they lost their lives crashing the Sirius at Rome - Littorio (now Urbe). There was public mourning in Rome and Air Minister Italo Balbo, himself a transoceanic airman, presented Hungary with a rather less modern plane, the Fiat BR.3 HA-AAF Giustizia per l'Ungheria.

The Fiat BR series of light bombers first flew in 1919 and the updated BR.3 was still being built in the early 1930s. This plane, named 'Justice for Hungary' in Italian, was donated to Hungary following the fatal crash in Rome of the Lockheed Sirius HA-AAF Justice for Hungary. As NR115W, the Sirius had flown across the Atlantic in July 1931. Photo from: Fortepan
