Most such posters rely on very plain silhouettes, this series - and we have many in this series - have a much more arty approach to the task with shading and an interesting angle view. The JU 90 was a transport plane developed for Lufthansa shortly before World War II. It was based on the Junkers JU 89 bomber, which did not progress beyond prototype stage. During the war, the Luftwaffe used the JU 90 aircraft for the transport of military personnel and equipment. The aircraft prototype first flew on August 28, 1937 and was lost in a crash the following February during testing. A second prototype was delivered to Lufthansa in May. This one also crashed during tests, but Lufthansa was satisfied enough to order three aircraft. When war broke out, the JU 90 was impressed into the Luftwaffe for a while (taking part in the invasion of Norway), returned to Lufthansa, and eventually taken back by the Luftwaffe. In the end, only 18 JU 90s of all versions were built; none are extant today.
