It was repaired, and then flown for training most of the time by Cpt.Av. Popescu-Ciocanel. It was destroyed in a hard landing in september 1941. But you already know it all. Build thread here Some pics of the real aircraft here (Thanks Cartula)

My take on the history of the real captured I-16 is that the Romanian Pilot realized it was junk compaired to our I.A.R. 80's and purposly crashed it so no one else could fly it.
