Summary

[edit]
Description

c/n 4194. A rare variant of the Skyservant was the Do 28D-2/OU (Oil Unit). Two aircraft were fitted with radar and SLAR (Side-Looking Airborne Radar) to monitor oil pollution in the Baltic and North Seas. Painted in a white scheme, they were operated between 1984 and 1995 by MFG-5 of the Marineflieger, on behalf of the German Transport Ministry. These aircraft were easily recognised by the fuselage-mounted SLAR antenna and a radome under the cockpit. In 1991, both aircraft operated for several weeks in the Persian Gulf during the Gulf War under the control of the United Nations. They were replaced by the Do228 at the end of 1995. This example is now on display at the 'Aeronauticum' museum, Nordholz, Germany.
