Photo Comment

This P-66 has had an interesting history before arriving at the Aeronauticum museum at Nordholz. Originally delivered in 1958 as CA+021 to the pilot school in Memmingen but was soon thereafter withdrawn from service after an accident. Using parts from two other aircraft she was repaired and delivered to MFG 5 as SE515 (SE+515). After languishing somewhat after retirement she was rescued by the museum in 1994.
