Ex WGAF KD130, GA375, LA155, AC192 and 5741. Civilianised as D-EAEI in 1971 and flown on missionary work in Africa and later in Papua New Guinea as VH-UIE and P2-UIE. Withdrawn and shipped via Australia to Germany in a non airworthy condition in 1994 and rebuilt as D-EBTF. Re-registered as D-ENTE in September 2007 and painted to resemble the original D-ENTE (c/n2001) which had crashed in Tanzania while on an animal conservation mission in 1959. Taken to Africa in August 2008 to commemorate the original mission and damaged at Lokichoggio, Kenya. Returned to Germany and rebuilt in 2009.
