Folks you don‘t make it to the age of 62 and 63 as captain if you think like this. Darwin will have sorted you out much earlier.

So you claim that the standard service ceiling of a slow 1500Hp plane is 12000 feet and they offer 17 pax flights in the Alps?
IMHO the performance of that Ju52 is a bit better than a standard C172....

Don’t believe that. With a slow plane with a 18000 feet(ish) ceiling, you can and will circle all day on the mountainside with upwinds, until you have enough margin to make it over the pass. On that...

Since the Ju52 is a slow bird, it takes more than a simple stall to wind down in an arrow like descending crash. Normally you and especial the two experienced pilots would have recovered the bird...

Sorry, I like in no way to offend you. Keep in mind that a lot of jurnos with no clue whatsoever are reading here and it does not help to jump to conclusions too early.

Complete rubbish.
Did you ever cross mountains in a piston engine? The Ju52 will go up to 18000 feet outperforming a typical C172 and any Homo sapiens not on oxygen. 12.000 feet density altitude is...
