German aviation industry manpower
After the Versailles Treaty denied Germany any military aircraft production, many plants closed their doors.
From about 40,000 people late 1918, the manpower quickly dwindled. My question is: how many were left in 1920? And if you have the breakdown, you'd be blessed... Thanks in advance. Chris |

Re: German aviation industry manpower
If that help, Richard Meredith's The Phoenix is Reborn 1918-1934 gives 3,988 workers, 2,813 in airframe plants and 1,175 in engine ones as of 31 January 1933. He gives the source as : German Aircraft Industry and Production: 1933-1945 by Ferenc A. Vajda and Peter Dancey.

Re: German aviation industry manpower
Who in turn I suspect sourced these numbers from Homze's book 'Arming The Luftwaffe'.
Homze also quotes 3,200 for Qtr 3 1932. |

Re: German aviation industry manpower
Well, thanks to you. However, I look for the figures in 1920 - not in 1933.
