A Piece of German Aviation History.

Once entrusted with carrying Germany’s highest-ranking government officials around the world, the Airbus A340-300 16+01 “Konrad Adenauer” has now found a new purpose.

Originally delivered to Lufthansa in 1999, the four-engine long-haul aircraft was transformed into Germany’s government flagship in 2011. For more than a decade, it carried chancellors, presidents, and official delegations on state visits across the globe.

First entering service on May 18, 1999, this remarkable aircraft accumulated an impressive 54,572 flight hours and 8,367 landings throughout its operational life. A true symbol of German aviation and diplomacy, now becoming a piece of history you can hold in your hands.
