Junkers F 13 Passenger Transport Family

The Junkers F 13 was a purpose-built all-metal passenger transport that helped define the emerging airliner after the First World War. Its low cantilever wing, corrugated duralumin structure, enclosed heated cabin for four passengers, and open two-person cockpit sharply contrasted with converted wartime aircraft. More than 300 examples served around the world in passenger, mail, and cargo work, with variants adapted to wheels, floats, and multiple engine installations.
