HA-JUE
Junkers
Ju-52/3m
(c/n J6585)
HA-JUE was delivered to Malert in 1939, and, as such, was one of the
last of its breed that the
airline
received. The above image is from the Gábor Toth
collection, and shows the aircraft in
early WW II
identification livery. It was impressed into service with the
Hungarian Air Force in
1942 becoming U-864. It crashed
(was shot down?) during an air attack in December 1944.
The aircraft below may, or
may not be HA-JUE. Gabor advises that this aircraft made an
emer-
gency landing after being attacked by a Slovak Avia B-534. It
appears that the offending fighter
shot out the Junkers' oil
cooler resulting in oil spilling up and covering his own windscreen to
such
an extent that he had to call off the
engagement and limp for home!
