Photo Comment

From 1984/5 two Skyservants from MFG 5 were fitted with special radar (fairing under the nose) to detect oil spills and illegal oil discharges. The two aircraft patrolled the shipping routes along Germany's Baltic and North Sea coastlines. Now this example spends her retitement as part of the very interesting Aeronauticum museum at Nordholz.
