20.GermanyThe earliest German airline using airplanes was Deutsche Luft-Reederei which started operations in 1919. They merged with Deutscher Aero Lloyd in 1923 and again with Junkers Luftverkehr in 1926 to form Deutsche Luft Hansa. In 1953 the name became simply Lufthansa. After DLR I'll list other airlines in the order they first started service ending with Lufthansa. The vast majority of the cards are from Luft Hansa. That section will list the aircraft in alphabetical order by manufacturer and in chronological order with the earliest from each company listed first. I'll add new cards as I acquire them.
