CASA 1.131E3B

10/31/2006. Remarks by Johan Visschedijk: "The Bücker Bü 131 Jungman was built under licence by CASA as the 1.131. The pictured aircraft was delivered to the Spanish AF as E.3B-317 in 1951. While registered as G-BXBD the aircraft suffered a collapsed landing gear at Kemble Airfield, UK, on July 7, 2002. The aircraft was transferred to the German Register in June 2006.

The cockpit looks authentic except for the modern VHF transceiver."
