Photo Comment

The aircraft entered service with the Rijksluchtvaartschool (RLS) in September 1946. In September 1960, the registration was cancelled and the aircraft was sold to a private owner together with PH-UBE and PH-UEI. The aircraft was put on display on the roof of car breaker Knoop in Aduard from 1960 to 1974. From there it went to the garden of a private person in Hornhuizen as a play-object for his children. The aircraft was damaged during a storm at Hornhuizen in February 1979 and then scrapped afterwards. Photo from Harm Reinders
