BB+368 after its net barrier engagement at Norvenich on November 8, 1962.
Flown by Kapitein Ludo Forgeur (BAF) and Olt Herman-Josef Sensen (IP), the aircraft landed long after engine problems and experienced additional nosewheel shimmy during the landing roll.
This resulted in the net engagement, which caused damage to the airframe and engine (the AOA vane broke and was ingested).
