P 177 "among a strong aviation presence in Africa were the Ju 52/3m plus fifteen french built Amiot AAC 1"

Well Alain

If you have evidence (p 176) that no Ju 52 ever flew back and forth to any Portuguese colony, I would very much like to know what that evidence is.

With regard to p 177 I am not sure what the authors mean, but most likely they refer to the same Ju 52 communication flights. As I said I have no evidence of any based Ju 52 units in Africa or any other Colony.
