The aircraft belonged to the Kampffliegerschule 3 at Greifswald. It is reported, that the aircaft was stolen by two students at Stettin, who intended to escape to England. During that flight the aircraft crashed at Kilsfjord on 5th July 1942. One of the occupants was killed during the crash, while the other, Willi Voss was caught and later executed. In 1993 the wreckage was discovered by a diver team and in August 2000 was rescured from the Fjord and moved to Gardemoen, Oslo. It is now at Gardemoen and awaits its restoration there.
The aircraft is currently at Gardemoen for further restoration. It is planned to send the aircraft to the Technikmuseum in Berlin after restoration as part of a joint venture between both museums regarding the rescue of a Ju88 at Lake Jonsvatnet in September 2004.
