Additional info

I cut this from the Flying wing article because it was OT. Might be worth stitching in here somewhere?

"The biggest land plane of its day, and nicknamed 'The Flying Hotel' one G-38 entered service with Lufthansa; It was not a commercial success however. Only two passenger planes were built although Mitsubishi in Japan acquired the licensing rights and built several (Some sources state 6) G-38s, as bombers under the designation Ki-20 or Type 92. Of Junkers own G38's one was grounded, the other was put to military use as a heavy transport and destroyed by a British air raid in Athens in 1941. "

Are there any sources for this info? Manxruler (talk) 21:28, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Turner & Nowarra (see refs) cover the variant mentioned in the second sentence. There was a Junkers construction number (K51) but they (all 6) were built by Mitsubishi as the Ki 20. There is a page on it but it's worth a mention here. I think the other points are covered or are contentious: Lufthansa ran D-2500 regularly for 8 year, so maybe commercially OK (yes, I remember Concorde!); personally I'm always wary of supposed nicknames.TSRL (talk) 21:49, 29 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Accessibility by the passengers - incorrect?

Accessibility by the passengers of the nose and wings is disputed.

Or maybe not.

Junkers L88 and Junkers L8a Engines

Junkers L88 and L8a are petrol/gasoline engines. Later, Junkers G.38 got Junkers 204 diesel engines.

I changed that in the main article (diesel -> gasoline) but was reverted back to diesel.

This lineage can be traced down to Junkers L1 petrol/gasoline engine. For short, Junkers G.38, while being powered by L88 and L8a used petrol/gasoline. Later, when it was powered by Junkers 204 engines, it was powered by diesel. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MalaMrvica (talk • contribs) 10:40, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
