Hangar C at Schiphol was used as a night shelter for visiting aircraft. Supposedly named Svealand, the ABA G24 crashed at Tubbergen, Holland on 31 August 1932. Behind the tail of the Farman F.170 Jabiru F-AIDT there appears to be an old Fokker F.III, D-716. There are four more Lufthansa aircraft: three Rohrbach Ro VIII Rolands, D-1712, D-1692 and D-1314, and a Focke-Wulf A 17, D-1388. The Czechoslovak Fokker F.VIIb/3m would appear to be OK-ABT, which was not registered until March 1932; however, the Jabiru is listed as destroyed in October 1931. Photo from: Amsterdam City Archives
