Registered January 15, 1957, Had an accident at Terlet May 20, 1978 and cancelled in April 1980. The damaged aircraft was added to the Aviodome (from 2003 Aviodrome) museum collection. In October, 2005 it was painted by children as a holiday activity and soon after it was stored with a private person in Zeewolde. Somewhat ironically, a fuel company was sponsoring this glider in 1966 albeit promoting automotive fuel and not aviation fuel. Photo from: Fred Quint
