This Hip-C was originally delivered to the Leningrad directorate of Aeroflot as CCCP-25525 in September 1991. By March 1993 it was flying for Petrozavodsk AE at was last noted operational in June 1998. The helicopter was trucked to Finland the following year and is now preserved (in this fake scheme) at a petrol station/cafe in the south-east of the country.

Bought from Russia in 1999. Original plan was fly it to Finland, but was disassembled and transferred by three trucks to its current location. According the story test flight was done after reassembly. Original paint fading away and hardly in any flying condition.

Around 2011 painted with c/s it never had when flying for Aeroflot. Aeroflot title and registration still kept.
