Amazing footage. Love the milling machine for the propellor blades, and just watching these guys put the Ju 52's and Ju 86's, together is so fascinating. Half a dozen guys just manhandle the front turret section up to the fuselage on that Ju 86. Really amazing stuff. And quite a showcase of Junkers 1930's aircraft; Ju 87-A's, Ju 52's, Ju 86's, and even a Ju 86 passenger aircraft. Great footage as always!
German Industrial techniques were sophisticated but also, expensive. We can see the Germans using milling and lathing for a lot of construction but otherwise a lot of the work is also done by hand. Airplanes usually require more hand labour than other forms of manufacturing and it seems that for the most part Germany's aero industry was capped by resource and labour limitations more than bad planning and incompetence that plagued their other sectors eg, automotive, civil, and marine engineering.
Looks unnecessarily complex and manpower intensive. This was the essence of the problem with Germany’s industrial armament production. Only Kurt Tank’s Fw-190 was designed to be produced in such a way that they could crank out high enough numbers to match Allied production.
Miseravelmente, Brasil em 1930 não fabricava quase nada: não fabricava o próprio aço, não fabricava carros, aviões, locomotivas, trilhos, só vivia de um modo arcaico da lavoura de café!!😢 Daí o subdesenvolvimento hoje!
In Italia ancora fatichiamo a capire la produzione e ingegnerizL zazione. Infatti è pieno di fascisti che si auto definiscono DEMOCRATICI. VORREBBERO TORNARE AI TEMPI DI JEAN BAPTISTE COLBERT, ministro delle finanze di LOUIS XIV. Tutti col culo in sù a lavorare la terra a mano. Grazie del filmato❤
