Almost 280 Do-24s were built in various versions between 1937 and 1945. They were used by the Luftwaffe during WWII for long-range SAR & reconnaissance and by the EdA until the 1960s. This plane is a composite from the fuselage of Aviolanda-built WNr. 3385, mated with the original wing of the Do 24 that became the Do 24 ATT, WNr 3404. It was previously a gate-guard at the Dornier factory at Oberpfaffenhofen but is displayed at the Deutsches Museum - Flugwerft Schleissheim with EdA markings from 1960-1969.

This aircraft is widely quoted as c/n 5344, but that is its fuselage number. It is in fact Dornier Werknummer 3385 which was delivered to Spain in 1944, last serving with them in 1966 as HD.5-3. Bought in August 1976 by Dolph Overton and registered to him as N99222 in Feb 1977. The aircraft was never delivered, but remained stored in Spain. Donated to Dornier in 1982, who then displayed it in their museum at Oberpfaffenhofen as of 1983, fitted with wings and engines from HD.5-4 c/n 3404. The flying boat was transferred to the Deutsches Museum at Oberschleissheim in Sep 2003.
