Photo Comment

Former Luftwaffe (53+34) was delivered to Greece in 1972. It is seen dumped at Elefsis since 1990. CL-215V 1112 is in the background. This Scooper was written off on 6 July 2006 after taking water near the Patroklos Island sea area. The aircraft sank in 120m of water but was recovered, but repairs were impossible. So usable parts were taken and the airframe was dumped.
