Junkers Ju 60

The Junkers Ju 60 was a single engine airliner built in prototype form in Germany in the early 1930s.

It was designed to meet a requirement issued by the Reichsverkehrsministerium (Reich Transport Ministry) for a German-built equivalent to the Lockheed Vega with which to equip Deutsche Luft Hansa.

With the latter able to demonstrate a top speed 75 km/h (47 mph) better than the Ju 60, development of the Junkers design was halted before the third prototype had been completed.

The two examples that had already been constructed eventually saw service with the Luftwaffe as liaison aircraft until 1942.
