Trainico in the German city of Berlin has acquired a retired Kamov Ka26 for use as a training tool. It will be used primarily for training aircraft engineers, and had for some years been displayed outdoors with the Hans-Grade-Museum at Borkheide.
This particular aircraft was built by Ufa State Aviation Plant in 1974 with serial number 7404804, it was first registered in the then East Germany and operated by Interflug as DM-SPJ and later to DDR-SPJ when that country changed its registration prefix. The re-unification of Germany required every then-registered aircraft to be moved to the D register, whereupon it was allocated D-HOAJ.
