Sitting atop this contraption in the playground of the Van Horne Hoeve, a restaurant annex petting zoo. The 1973 Mil served with the East German Grenztruppen until the reunification year 1990. Destined for both the East and unified German Police thereafter but not taken up. Was preserved in Germany, France and elsewhere in the Netherlands, moved here in October 2014 and given this livery and small PS Aero logo and titles years later.
