I agree that it is a very interesting photo. Without going through every photo I have of AAC 1s I do tend to think this is the first one I see in the c/n 1001 - 1038. So a very nice find Ed. Thank You!

Re: #s 3392 to 3395


I'm coming a bit late to the subject.

The photo clearly shows a four-digit c/n on the tail; I read it as 1013. In France, four-digit c/ns were used for genuine Ju 52s which had been reworked by AAC resp. brought to AAC 1 standard, altogether 37 or 38 aircraft. Unfortunately, the previous German c/ns are unknown.

In the years 1949 to 1951, c/n 1013 was used by French AF GT 2/62 "Franche-Comté" in Indochine using call-sign FRAYT, matching the letter 'T' on the tail.

There is no connection whatsoever with Japan.
