Notes:

From 2002 to 2021 this Fw 200 was restored and rebuilt at the Airbus plant in Bremen (80% of the work and around 50 employees) as well as at Lufthansa Technik in Hamburg and at Rolls-Royce Germany in the Oberursel plant on behalf of the Deutsches Technikmuseum (German Museum of Technology) Berlin. The aircraft was forced to land in the fjord on February 22, 1942 by Captain Werner Thieme because a landing flap was defective, which made a regular landing impossible. All six crew members were able to save themselves.
