Photo Comment

This German seaplane was stationed in Copenhagen during World War II. After the liberation, on 1 July 1945, a large British air show was organized off the coast of Kastrup Airport where 3 Bv 138s were sunk by Hawker Typhoon fighters. In 1994 one was found during construction of Øresund bridge. After cleaning and preservation, the aircraft was put on display in June 2001.
