Introduction

After the Second World War and until the mid-fifties only civil aeronautics were allowed in Germany and in the two German states. From 1953 on there was civil air traffic carried out by German companies. Military air traffic was assumed by the four Allied powers until the creation of the Bundeswehr in the Federal Republic of Germany and of the National People's Army (Nationale Volksarmee) in the German Democratic Republic.
