Built for RNZAF as NZ1940. Damaged in 1987. Sent to Pacific Aerospace for repairs. While there converted to the prototype CT-4C with an Allison 250 turboprop and 3-bladed prop as ZK-FXM. When no sales eventuated, converted back to a CT-4B and returned to the RNZAF. It would later be sold in Australia as VH-YCQ. Bob Kerr photo

NZ1940 in the process of being recovered from where it force-landed near Doyleston. In May 1987 it suffered take-off accident at Whitecliffs. Left unrepaired it was loaned to Aerospace Industries in 1990 to became the prototype of a turbine powered model ( as ZK-FXM). When that project was cancelled it reverted to a standard CT-4B and was returned to the RNZAF. Sold in 1998 it became ZK-FXM and then VH-YCQ in Australia.
