Ex G-AHXK. The metal-winged VH-RCC was imported in 1962 at the same time Ansons were being grounded in Australia over concerns about the integrity of their wooden wings. At the time of the photo it was flying for SA Air Taxis and it was retired at Adelaide in 1964. The metal wings went to a scrap yard and the rest was burnt.
