Update and News here on Do27.com

As
of today D-ENTE is loaned to the Dornier-Museum
at Friedrichshafen Airport. She is part of the exhibition of Dornier
aircraft and will be displayed until 30th of April to the public.
During the AERO she is part of the stand of the Dornier-Museum.

D-ENTE
flies again! After the successful completion of the flight into
the Serengeti D-ENTE was severely damaged in an accident which occured
during the landing on the return flight to Germany at the airport
of Lokichoggio/Kenia. After landing the pilot lost control over
D-ENTE and groundlooped over a ditch. The right landing gear was
torn off, the fuselage destroyed and the wing damaged. Fortunately
no injuries.
After
one year repair, thousands of working hours and an extraordinary
effort D-ENTE took off for the second maiden flight on 5th of October
2009 from 08:32 until 08:47 UTC. Erik Baues CEO of the Flugzeugwerft
Finsterwalde and his team of mechanics were responsible for
rebuilding and repairing D-ENTE. She looks better than after the
first restoration. Eventually the Africa Adventure came to an happy
end. A thorough report about the flight to Tanzania, the restoration,
the accident and the repair is in progress. The Blog about the flight
to Tanzania is online again. Click
