The last flying Morane Saulnier MS.406 wearing a new colour scheme at Flying Legends 2013. The new markings are her original Swiss Air Force markings. She was built under license in Swizerland and is one of 289 examples constructed by EFW/Dornier between 1939 and 1941. Restored using parts from several different D-3801s collected in the 1970s she was rebuilt from 1994 to June 2000 when she made her first flight. One of only two Swiss built survivors, the other resides in the Swiss Air Force Museum at Dubendorf.
