When Arthur Butler arrived at Tooraweenah after his flight from the UK, he taxied to the main street and stopped outside Garling's Commercial Store. He had been courting the Garlings' daughter and proposed to her. She accepted. After World War II, the tiny town of Tooraweenah would became a hub second only to Sydney for Butler Air Transport but is now well and truly off the world airline map. Garling's store was demolished long ago but the shed with the panelled door to the left stood until at least 2008. It too is now gone.

Australian Arthur Butler, in the leather helmet and coat, flew G-ABRE from the UK to Australia in a record time of 9 days 2 hours 20 minutes, starting October 31, 1931. After reaching Mascot airport (now Sydney International), Butler undertook an eight-week publicity tour of Australia, returning to Mascot several times. G-ABRE was stored at the end of the tour, then shipped back to the UK in June 1932. New owner Victor Smith made several record attempts until -ABRE was WFU after a forced landing in 1934. Cancelled in 1945 in a post-war register clean-out.
