Georg Jueterbock
Georg Jüterbock (born August 7, 1892 in Kösen , † November 4, 1940 in Rincón del Tigre , Bolivia ) was a German aviation pioneer and the first of the so-called air millionaires of Junkers .
Life
Jüterbock was employed by Svenska Lufttrafik AB in 1920 and then moved to Junkers. In 1923/24, based on an agreement between his employer and the Soviet government, he was employed as a pilot for the state airline Dobroljot , where, among other things, from September 8th to 15th, 1923 he used an F 13 to cover the 3,400 km planned section from Moscow to Novonikolajewsk in explored several stages. The pure flight time of Jüterbock and his Soviet on-board mechanic was 20 hours. In 1927 he set a speed record and in 1928 a height record with the Junkers W 34 . From 1925 Jüterbock worked for Junkers Luftverkehr in Persia, which was founded a year earlier. In 1939 he was a pilot at Lloyd Aéreo Boliviano in Bolivia, where he was killed in a plane crash that same year.
