Photo Comment

The Helicopter Museum at Bückeburg is really superb, the staff are friendly and very much worth a visit. By necessity, the exhibits are very close together and it wasn't possible to get a satisfactory picture of this interesting frame. The number A01019 is stamped at the rear of the main cabin, although the cn given in the customs document from June 1980 is 05712 (subsequently adopted for the fake registration on the tail boom) but this does not fit into any known sequence. The helicopter was a gift by Aviaexport to the Hubschraubermuseum and has been preserved there since 1980.
