Recent German technology towing wonderful old German technology... This Junkers is no less than 75 years old, and still going strong when this photo was taken. Following a long life in Europe and then the Americas, it came back to Europe from the USA in 1984, and was completely rebuilt to original condition. It made its first post-restoration flight on 1 April 1986, and so far many enjoyable pleasure flights have followed in the 30+ years that have passed since then. Unfortunately Lufthansa withdrew their support a year later, and this magnificent aircraft was withdrawn from use in August 2018.
