Junkers Ju 52 transport
 

Hello all
Can you recommend me some books or web pages about Junkers Ju 52 transport in ww2. Like units, locations and chronology.
I have and read;

Ju 52/3m bomber and transport units 1936-41 by author Robert Forsyth
Transporter - Luftwaffe transport units 1943-1945 by author Martin Pegg

these two are great but I would like to know more if it's possible.

Is there is some other reading I can find about this topic that you can recommend.
German language books will do but only if it more in detail than these two.

thanks in advance
Antun

Hi,

I'm no expert in this matter, but there is always "German Air Force Airlift Operations" by Generalmajor Fritz Morzik

https://www.amazon.com/German-Air-Fo...7136897&sr=1-1

I'd be interested to hear opinions on this book as well.

Take care.

They are the titles of books , there is little point in translating them as they are only available in German.

Hopefully in a not to distant future (this year) there will be a new book about the Ju 52 by Lennart Andresson, Günther Endres and Rob Mulders

I've heard that it at the moment weigh in at 2 kg... :-) so if you're just going for one Ju 52 book I think you might consider waiting!

Just a little careful voice….

Hopefully soon or at the end of this year, my book on the Ju will come out too. I am not a writer or anything like the "big guys", but wanted to try and thus share photos from my own collection and logbooks etc. etc.

Have a nice day,

Christian

No, dont wait for EAM. There be catch, Wartime Luftwaffe aircraft and Operations are not covered. So there likely will be no mention or details of single engined Ju 52´s in Luftwaffe service, such as BB+MW, NL+KC, PD+AT and possibly more.
