I believe there are two or three still airworthy, as well as a few built under license in Spain as the Casa 352, and also perhaps one or two being restored to an airworthy state.
One, owned at the time by a German airline, toured the USA a few years ago after appearing at Oshkosh. The first I knew of it, I was working in my office when I heard the rumble of its engines. Looking up, I saw the silhouette of a three-engined airplane pass slowly by about a quarter mile away, and for some reason, I thought 'It looks like a pterodactyl!' At first, I guessed it was a Ford Trimotor, as I knew that, at least until fairly recently, one had still been in commercial service, flying a short hop between somewhere near Cleveland and an island in lake Erie.
