A museum with just the one aircraft, but what a machine! IN312 of INAS 312 "Albatross" is displayed on Visakhapatnam's Beach Road adjacent to Foxtrot-class submarine museum INS Kursura. Deinducted on 29 March 2017 after 29 years of yeoman service, the aircraft was flown for the last time to INS Dega 8 Apr 2017 by Cdr RS Dutt, Senior Pilot of Albatross. Dismantled, it was transported by road and reassembled as a superb walk-through exhibit, with aircraft equipment on display in the building to the rear.
