Research Abstract

Junkers developed the world's first all-metal passenger plane F13, instead of a major shift after the end of World War I, from military to civilian demand, and the inevitable shift from wartime industry to peace industry, Junkers has opened the cutting edge of the world transportation revolution. Hugo Junkers has made great strides in pioneering and developing world air traffic with his internationalist and democratic spirit. Junkers made bold efforts to increase the size of all-metal passenger aircraft, and continued development with items such as safety, low cost and long flight. Junkers also tried a trans-Atlantic flight from east to west and succeeded. In market development, it played an advanced role in the aviation industry inside and outside Germany, and targeted certain major countries in the world such as Japan, China, the United States, or South America, and achieved certain results.
