Now part of the South African Airways museum at Rand Airport, Lodestar ZS-ASN was previously housed at OR Tambo International in the care of the South African Airways Historic Flight. It flew its last service for the airline on 18th March 1955 and was subsequently used by the Aircraft Operating Company for aerial survey work throughout Africa, before undergoing restoration with the SAA apprentice school at what was then known as Jan Smuts International Airport.

Delivered to the South African Air Force in November 1940 as 1372. To South Afican Airways in February 1946 as ZS-ASN. Converted to an aerial survey aircraft around 1955 and used for survey work throughout Africa until it was withdrawn from service in February 1973. To the museum in December 1973, where restoration started in 1974.
