The usage of the name "Junkers" is very confusing on this page. It os often unclear whether it referes to the engineer Hugo Junkers or to one of his former companies, such as Junkers & Co or others. Also, this article does not differntiate between the different companies. The history of the company Junkers & Co needs to transferred to the porper lemma (instead of the page redirecting here) while this page should only deal with the aircrafts. -- Riper2008 14:51, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Image:Junkers.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Most of East German Junkers were forcibly relocated by the Soviets to work on the Russian Space program. Perhaps this is worth mentioning? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 169.234.242.8 ( talk) 19:44, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
I assume Jumo is a contraction of "Junkers Motorenbau"? Drutt ( talk) 09:47, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
Would it be possible to expand on and mention a bit about Junkers today or clearly state what happened to Junkers after the 1960's. The whole post-war history seems to be absent. Please forgive me if this question or suggestion seems a lot, I have the upmost respect for peole who research and write articles like this - but it was curiousity about what happened to Junkers post-WWII that led me to this article in the first place!

What is a "bona fide commercial success"? Could the person who wrote this please use English that we can all understand? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.148.235.4 ( talk) 20:11, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
I think the picture of the only surviving J1 is of the later J1 biplane ground-attack aircraft, not of the experimental monoplane.

Quote Adam Tooze's *Wages Of Destruction*:
Early in the morning of 17 October 1933 Dr Hugo Junkers was arrested at his vacation home in Bayrischzell on charges of treason.93 Junkers was Germany's leading aviation pioneer, a celebrated engineer who at his plant at Dessau had constructed the world's first full-metal aircraft. Junkers's factory, though modest in size, was by far the largest aircraft factory in Germany. It has sometimes been suggested that Hugo Junkers's expropriation was due to his interest in internationalist politics and pacifism. But Junkers was in fact a conservative nationalist, who eagerly embraced the cause of rearmament. His difficulty was simply that he owned the largest aircraft plant in Germany and that Goering and his Secretary of State Erhard Milch were determined to have control of it. In the 1920s Junkers had squabbled with the German military about the future direction of aerial rearmament. The new holders of power were not willing to argue. After twenty-four hours in police detention, Junkers agreed to sign away his firm to the Reich.
I'd change it myself, but I don't know how to cite an ebook. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LazyNecromancer ( talk • contribs) 14:14, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
Is it just me or is that history section strangely avoiding the nazi period ? We have the time between WW1 and WW2 and then "Financial Problems" followed by the time after WW2. No mention of the dive bombers and all the other Junkers aircraft that were used to destroy all kinds of things. Did I mention the civil war in Spain ? Ok, forget it. Did I ask about the use of slave labor ? And so on. For some strange reason one of the most infamous manufacturers of nazi weaponary can have its Wikipedia page without any report about its role in the so called 3rd Reich. Strange.

There is a company which is building modern reproductions of Junkers 1920's designs. I saw one in person in the Waco Aircraft hangar in Kalamazoo MI this weekend. Can we get a new section to discuss the modern Junkers brand? TAPwiki ( talk) 21:31, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

Is it not an important enough topic or is it terribly important to hide the real history? I'll write the supplement myself and we'll see Esttg ( talk) 15:15, 4 May 2023 (UTC)
