In January 1945, Uffz. Herbert Maxis was flying 784993 in IV/JG53 as part of Operation Bodenplatte when he attacked an American convoy near Ober-Felsberg in the Saarland but was shot-down by ground fire. Maxis belly landed the plane successfully but was shot by an American soldier as he exited the plane. The wreck was later buried but re-discovered in 1987 and used, along with from parts of many different authentic 109s, for the restoration of two different 784993s, one of which is now on display at Aviaticum, Wiener Neustadt - Ost (LOAN) and this one at Múzeum Letectva Košice.

Giving an impression of just how much is on show in the famous Kbely museum, this view shows a trainer version of the S-199, a Czech post-war reworking of the Messerschmitt Bf-109G design. With a shortage of Daimler-Benz engines, Avia substituted the Junkers Jumo power plant. Performance was much less satisfactory however and difficult handling characteristics led to the 600 or so of the S/CS-199 series built being generally disliked, many being written off in accidents.

Built in 1943.
