Close, that's Ju-52 and they worked out OK  when the Germans invaded
Norway but took a pounding when the Germans invaded Create (?). Actually the
glider

was the prefered way for the air landing types and most nations during WWII
had them. The

reason for
landing the Ju-52's at Norway and Crete (I wasn't sure if they did land
there) was due to the distance that the aircraft had to travel being to great
for a
glider towing Ju-52 to
be able to return after releasing it's tow.
