A true-to-scale replica of the 1929 Junkers A50 sportsplane/trainer/air taxi. Like the original, it cruises at a leisurely 100 mph without you having to worry about anything as complicated as flaps, retractable landing gear or even anything but the basic instruments. Just don't slam on the brakes full force until the ground speed is below 50. She is a taildragger so she has the tendency to flip over when you brake too hard.

The only extra are the wings that just like with the original can be folded backwards to take up less hangar space. As SimplePlanes doesn't yet have a friendly ground crew to help you push the plane and fold the wings, I settled for the Activate1 button as the next best option.

This plane came about after I already built several imaginary two-engined versions of the A50 (click HERE for the amphibian, HERE for the floatplane, HERE for the landplane and HERE for the gunship from the Gran Chaco War).

Of course, you can always build your own version with extra engines, extra gear or just a fancy paint job. In fact, I encourage you to do so.

Ps, paint job. This model is painted to look like the one currently on display at the Deutsche Museum in Munich. If you live nearby, you can actually go over there and see it in person.

This is the first livery for my build of the 1929 Junkers A50 more liveries can be found HERE , HEREand HERE while the 2022 rebuild can be found HERE. Still, nothing says you can't make your own.

Ps, The figures I used the pilot and student can be downloaded HERE. The heads are chosen from the collection available HERE
