After a mishap near Ramstein on 11 July 1975, this aircraft was moved to Eindhoven and became an instructional airframe. In 1978, it was reserialled TPG-29, named after three mechanics Ton, Paul and Gerrit. In1985, the aircraft moved to Twenthe. In 1988, it obtained its original serial again. The aircraft has been preserved since.
