Struck off the Australian register in 1959. It was left to become derelict until the 1970s when the remains were acquired for a rebuild. The parts changed hands several times until they were taken to the UK. The registration G-HACA has been allocated to the rebuild. The registration reflects its original Australian registration of VH-ACA when the aircraft was owned by Richard Casey, later Lord Casey and the governor-general of Australia. Casey was an enthusiastic pilot whose private airstrip at Berwick, Victoria, became a centre for vintage aviation.

Built in 1937. Ex G-AEZJ, PH-ATH, KE+CW (Luftwaffe), D-IXWD. German war booty from The Netherlands and one of the aircraft presented to Sweden after a German ship shot down Vega Gull SE-AHR in 1941. Here is SE-ALA still in German colours with yellow nose, fin and stabilizer. The Vega Gull was sold to the UK in 1987 and is now restored as G-AEZJ.
