Photo Comment

Flew into Southend from Calais on 1st June 1972 and installed in the Historic Aircraft Museum. Reported at the time as built in Prague in 1943, ex-OE-ADR. Doubts at the time over its c/n, quoted as either "3812" or "110094" ex-Swedish AF Fv3812". Subsequently painted in Luftwaffe colours as "CB-VD". Sold for £24,000 at the Philip's auction on 10th May 1983 when the museum closed. Displayed at the Whitehall Theatre of War and then sold to Kermit Weeks for his Fantasy of Flight Museum.
