Photo Comment

During the delivery of both Dantorps to Denmark, the aircraft made a precautionary landing on the leg from Amsterdam to Copenhagen after one of them aircraft suffered engine trouble near the German islands. 202 tipped over on its nose during the landing and was damaged. You can see the ropes around the aft fuselage, in an attempt to put the aircraft back on its wheels. Photo from Collectie Ol Eel, werkgroep Luchtvaarthistorie
