Reported to have been captured by British forces at Husum in Germany on 8 May 1945, and at the time of my photograph part of the collection of historic aircraft kept at RAF Colerne. It moved to St Athan in 1975, and on 5 May 1988 it was transferred to the West German Air Force, and is now displayed at the Luftwaffe Museum at Berlin-Gatow.
