Started during WWII as a Fiesler Fi.156C-7 but never completed. In 1948 completed by Automobilove Zavody at Chocen as a K65A registered OK-IKA. Sold shortly after as HB-IKA to the Aero-Club St. Gallen; but also believed used by Swissair for photo and special flights. Sold in 1950 to Lindt & Sprungli and soon after transferred to their German affiliate and based at Dusseldorf. In 1978 converted to look like a Fi.156D-1 and registered D-EMAV. Photo location and Date taken are guesses.
