Photo Comment

THis Pembroke was TOC by the West German AF in October 1957. In May 1966 it was assigned the serial YA-558 and then around November 1967 this was changes again to 5407 Luftwaffe. The plane was retired in 1974 and given the false markings XA-109 for display at the Luftwaffenmuseum at Uetersen. From 1995 to 1996 the museum was relocated to the former airbase at RAF Gatow and AS-558 received its original serial once more.
