As if the exterior wasn't telling the story, the cockpit has been stripped from instruments and the aircraft suffered a punctured hull after colliding with the counter weight during strong winds. It will definitely not fly out of here anymore and is the prime candidate for scrapping once permits are received.

Moved to a more permanent (and out of the way location) on this day. The aircraft has been with us since the April 2020 and is a casualty of the covid-19 pandemic. Recent rumor had it that there is a party interested in buying the aircraft, but the future of the aircraft still seems to be very fluid.

Actually 5B-DDE. The aircraft was meant to become 2-BDDE while in storage, but the paperwork took too long and the aircraft had to be reverted back to 5B-DDE. To make the reregistering easier (and because such stickers are expensive), the "5" was replaced by a piece of A4 paper with a "2" on it. By now, that piece of paper has been blown off, revealing this hybrid version of the registration. As I write this caption, I realize it's already been a year since the aircraft first touched down at Eelde. I hope it still has a future somewhere.
