Constructed of steel and wood the three-seat aircraft is powered by an 150 hp Lycoming O-320 A 2B engine. The prototype (OE-VAL c/n 51) made its maiden flight late in 1960, the last JOB 15 (c/n 73) was delivered in 1966.

Built and registered D-EJHO in 1965 this is one of several JOB 15s built or converted to a four-seater, designated as JOB 15-150/2. In February 1966 it has briefly been registered in Denmark as OY-CAY.

Owner Otto Boehm from Freiburg, Germany, supplied this photo. He spent 5000 hours to rebuilt the aircraft.
