TANTE JU! ♥ Junkers JU 52 Scenic Flight from Gstaad
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2015
- DEAR AUNTY JU
Proudly standing skywards with your nose in the wind, gently carried by wings. The three BMW radial engines are music to the ears, an unmistakable sign that a Junkers JU 52 appears. Your corrugated skin is light-weighted and thin but enormously robust to withstand every wind.
You are airborne within a few hundred meters, that is when the modern aircrafts feel dethroned and believe in a malfunction of the thrust lever. Those technically sophisticated planes are equipped with touch screen, it is a dream or the last scream. But your cockpit has hardly changed, it is well-arranged.
During wartime you flew day and night without a trace of fright. Many brave soldiers flew towards an unknown fate. You meant the last connection to entire armies before they had to fight until the bitter end. You brought many wounded soul back, saved lives and reunited the returning soldiers with their loved ones.
There are so many stories to tell. A spectacular one happend in the Swiss avalanche winter (1951) when it was snowing like hell. Aunty JU distributed many relief goods which were dropped by parachute. Wool blankets, bread and even hay for the cattle, a big help to fight against the hard winter battle.
The end of work has never really come because you are so awesome. You are used to long queues because people are so amused by flying with dear Aunty JU - Tante JU. Your success story may never come to an end, you are a beloved flying legend.

Beautiful plane with a tragic story
True! Thank you for watching.
It's wonderful that old birds like this are kept flying and people can still experience them. Great video!
Thank you for the compliment.
Those planes, when their engines start, sound like eggs frying in oil....
😂😂😂😂😂
Der Sound ist unverkennbar. Wie oft höre ich diesen Sound, ohne das ich die Ju52 sehe und ich weiß sofort, es ist die Ju52. Da geht einfach nix drüber. Einfach eine Synfonie von Propeller und Sternmotor Sound vom Feinsten.
they seem to fly remarkably well, despite their age. excellent machines .
Still one of the most iconic aircraft of WW2, she looks as beautiful as she sounds!
After viewing various videos of this, their DC-3, their Constellation and others, I have to say this: the Swiss REALLY know how to take good care of an airplane!
Dread Penguinlord That comment didn't age well :/
Well, they do build airplanes (Pilatus) and clocks. Among other things.
Beautiful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!
My goodness, what a beautiful aircraft !
Thank you!
Damn, Switzerland is the most beautiful country on earth, the cleanliness wow.
Was für ein göttlicher Klang, absolut wahnsinnig! Thanks to Matt!
Danke vielmals!
Wonderful plane. With that I made my first parachute jumps six, very many years. Thank you Matthias. ;-)
+Paco Jimenez Thank you very much! Pretty sure that the parachute jump was a great experience. Indeed an admirable plane!
Imagine flying this into Stalingrad in January 1943...
Duarrr anti air
And Imagine jumping out of it, as a paratrooper...
What a nice touch the BMW logo on the cowlings. These engines can produce an awesome sound.
Yeah, what's with the BMW logo?
Yeah why
My guess is that the Junkers Ju 52 ran the BMW 132 engines. Not sure if these are the original engines, though.
Masterpiece of aviation history
It is an amazing aircraft and a workhorse in World War II.
@@matthiashaenni yes , during WW2 , hundreds of this plane were used by Luftwaffe on all front
The real air 'bus' (large windows) 😆
I know I haven't been commenting much but I gotta at least say how much I love this one....
Now that is a classic, excellent video of this beautiful aircraft Matthias! Love the multiple views, I hope the flight was great.
+TheHDAviation Thank you very much for your kind words! Much appreciated!! It was a dream come true! I dreamt since childhood about a flight with this good old airplane.
Dear Matthias:
I could probably write an entire magazine article commenting on this video of our much-loved Tante Ju: about your MESMERIZING Poetic Letter, about how this puts me in a mood for living, about the timeless "MUSIK DES FLIEGENS" of those radial engines, and so on.
But it's so MUCH MORE than that.
Since I joined your absolutely splendid channel and visited your website-blog, I have gained a deep and abiding affection for the Swiss-Austrian-German Aviation Community. So it's only natural that the August accident of Aunt Ju HB-HOT hurts me to the tears.
So There, My Friend, all I can say is the following:
May this Masterpiece of a Video be an Eternal TRIBUTE to Those who died and suffer! May it remain perpetual, even when Aunt Ju is no longer able to fly! And come to think of it, Matt, May ALL of your Extraordinary Effort, your Channel, your Talent and your Enthusiasm be THE GRANDEST TRIBUTE OF THEM ALL!!!
Yours Truly,
JAVIER.
Hi Javier, thank you so much for your great thoughts and kind words. I appreciate them very much. The accident was a real nightmare. Only highly experienced pilots military and airline pilots flew this aircraft. The Ju52 was painstakingly serviced and was in a great condition. So it is hard to understand why this crash happened. May the victims rest in peace and the relatives find good comfort.
einfach super, dass die alte Dame so noch aktiv ist , vor ca 45 Jahren war die HB HOP Star im Film "Where eagles dare" mit Clint Eastwood und Richard Burton " Agenten sterben einsam"
A lovely and great preserved beauty and, more, with original BMW made engines !!!
Herrlich :) Top Sound.!!
+RCHeliJet Danke vielmals!
Wow! What can I say, you are so lucky to be able to fly in these rare and old aircraft. The video was beautiful made as always and was an absolute pleasure to watch! Thank you for sharing this with us.
+cpockettsAviation Oh thank you very much for your kind words!! Much appreciated!! I dreamt since childhood about a flight with this good old airplane. A dream came true!
A piece of history....beautiful
This was a beautiful aircraft.
Gorgeous sounds, gorgeous scenery.
Thank you!
I love JU !!
Ich liebe die Tante JU...
What a very nice old lady!! Great experience flying old birds! We flew a dc3 a few months ago. It's great to have a good taste of aviation history!
+Aviation NLNZ Thank you very much! Oh wow a DC-3 flight is also very impressive! True, I especially love the good old planes!
We have lost a beloved Tante JU?
NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Solid and Reliable Airplane.
A Flying Jeep!
Beautiful
This plane is the backbone of the Luftwaffe transport unit during World War II , hundreds were used on all fronts
Hi Steven, yes it was an enormous workhorse during World War II.
I loved this video. Could not be better; For kill the homesickness of ancient times! Thank you very much...
Thank you for your kind words. Much appreciated.
Simplesmente LINDO!
Great sight and sound. Nice to see and hear the old beauty practically in its original state. :-)
+flybyplane Thank you! A wonderful and admirable aircraft indeed. It dreamt since childhood about a flight with this good old JU 52. A dream came true.
I got about an hour stick time in one of these. It belonged to the Commemorative Air Force and had been rebuilt at Fort Collins, CO. They wanted to get it to Midland, Texas to be painted and offered to let anyone who was willing to buy the fuel to fly it down there (with a qualified pilot in the left seat) Five of us popped for the flight and each of us got about an hour flying it. We spent most of our time trying to get all three engines in sync.
Thanks for sharing your experience. I hope you enjoyed it. So I guess it is the last airworthy JU 52 in the States?
Thank thank you for these video JU-52 i have one thousand and five hundred hours JU.52
Thank you!! Great to hear!
Beautiful airplanes I actually got to see one live a few times.
Aunty Julie 💖! I would name her Cloud Chaser. " Wolkenjäger"
She is at home in the air as a kestrel.
Tri -Motor BMW radials their symbol is a stylized spinning propeller. This craft has a bit of a likeness to the Ford Tri -Motor.
Wonderful machine that also flew in Bolivia for many years, soaring through cold winds of andes mountains, pioneering the development of bolivian aviation.
Amazing aircraft!! Great video my friend!!
That was truly so enjoyable!! There is something hard to pin down about radial engines. They look so 'old' but actually in practice they are silky smooth and powerful. They do not seem strained at all like the modern screaming jet turbine engine.. radials, i LOVE them :)
Fantastic many congratulations for this travel .
Poesie in Wort und Bild! Alle Daumen hoch!
+dvldi Danke vielmals! :)
Bester Motoren-Sound! Besser als in jedem Supersportwagen oder Formel 1 Rennwagen!
vergleiche mal fw-190,die einzige originale,bmw 801 doppelstern,wieder dieser weiche,satte bmw sound.
oder die antonoff a2,klingt hart+russisch,oder die boing stearman,absoluter amerikanischer klang.das waren nochzeiten,wo man die motoren erkannte.
MKROXTON
The iconic paratrooper's plane. I wish I could ride one of these in Fallschirmjäger style.
Thanks for watching!
Fabulous Sounding Plane 🇨🇭❤️🇬🇧Lush Alpine Scenery ❤️
Today i seated in exactly this machine. It was in a museum. Sadly there no big chance to see them in the sky again. The crash gave them the rest. Many times i saw one of these over our house. When i heard them, i ran out and i knew what type of plane is coming and i had always enjoyed that. I hope one of these will fly sometimes again but i have less hope:(
Excellent film footage and sound.
Thank you Lorenzo!
Great sound!
Thank you!
Wow cool air plane
Wow
That sound... I used to run to the window every time I heard it. One of these machines made round-trips over my hometown, we regarded seeing her as a sort of good-luck-event.
The prop stop at the end was good.
Thank you
Legend. One of 'em.
Yes, it was definitely great to fly with this legendary and good old JU 52.
Now that is awesome!!
+PVDAviation Thank you!
Rip HB-HOT
HB- HOP
Great plane!
A great bit of footage there Matthais,Bet it was a great experience for all on board the aircraft....Cheers....Trevor.''
+Trevor Ledgeway Thank you Trevor. I dreamt since childhood about a flight with this good old airplane. So it was a dream come true!
Wunderbar das ist der Deutsche ju-52
Great video mate!
+bristolcardifairport Thank you!
Hoi Matthias Deine Filme sind einfach pure Lust zu schauen als Fliegerfan Danke.
Vielen Dank Alfred. Es freut mich von Dir via UA-cam zu hören. Einen schönen Sonntag und lieber Gruss Matthias
lindos recuerdos
This airplane crashed with 20 persons aboard.😰😰😰😰 god bless their souls
Yes, I have also received this shocking news. My thoughts are with the victims and their relatives. I am so sad!
This bird is still alive, I think. Crash photo shows HB-HOT on fuselage. And different paint scheme. Still, bad news all the same.
Yes, this is correct. JU Air had a fleet of three JU 52. HB-HOP (in this video), HB-HOS and HB-HOT. Latter one sadly crashed.
If the Machine is very well overhauled; and If there are good pilots; it's much harder to fall! Because this wonderful aircraft was used extensively in World War II; and with great success ...

Einfach nur ein geiles Flugzeug 👍
Vielen Dank!
Good old square windows and old map on paper, amazing :D
stary ale jary
This old girl is a classic. A great book to read is Sepik Pilot by James Sinclair about how Ju-52s were purchased after the war and used as far afield as Papua New Guinea ferrying freight around in treacherous weather. Wing Commander Gibbs flew these old birds as well as others around the island. Those were the days when flying was flying!!!
Thank you for the book recommendation. That is what I like to read :)
Great footage. Thanks for sharing.
incredible experience !! and perfectly filmed ! well done !
Thank you very much!
Wunderschön - !!!
Spectacular
Thank you Darrel.

Lindo!!! Kiss from Brasil!👏👏
