Photo Comment

This 134 was handed over to the Privolzhsk directorate of Aeroflot in July 1972 but later damaged beyond economical repair during a hard landing at Erfurt and withdrawn from the fleet in September 1984. It was donated (or sold) to East Germany, repaired, ferried to Schoenefeld (SXF) in July 1985, dismantled and transported by road to Wartin (near Angermünde) for use as an anti-terrorist trainer at the MfS training centre. In January 1990 it was handed over to the district of Angermünde and later used as a restaurant at Grünz, before being dismantled and transported to this museum in late 2017.
