Photo Comment

Built in 1919, it initially had the German registration D-690, and later military markings NG+UR. It was certified for flight until May 1940. During the war, it became an exhibit at the Berlin Museum, evacuated to Greater Poland after the bombing of the German capital. From 1963, severely damaged, it was stored in a warehouse at the Krakow Museum. It was rebuilt in 1986 in Berlin as Albatros B-IIa no. 1302/15 "Ada," and from 1987 it was displayed at the Museum in fictitious Polish Air Force colors. From 2025, it was repainted in the colors of the first Polish private aircraftfrom the 1920s.
