Transported by road to Essen by the WDL Oldtimer Freunde society in April 2021, after a similar foundation had to discontinue her restoration project. Built in 1945 and delivered to the Armee de l'Air where she served the CEV among other units. To the FA Portuguesa in November 1960, withdrawn from use as 6320 in 1967 and stored in Alverca. Flown to Germany by C-160 in 1975 and preserved at the LTG63 barracks, Hohn, as 1Z-IK until 2019. Then spent the next two years in Mönchengladbach, being largely restored before being passed on again. On display without any identification marks.
