Photo Comment
This aircraft is made up of components from three aircraft, mostly VH-SBQ c/n 1901. However the seat bases are from c/n 0499 (N2258R) and include the dataplate. The tail boom is from VH-LOT (c/n 0698). The museum considers that as the aircraft is substantially c/n 1901, it is VH-SBQ and has restored it to depict that aircraft. -SBQ crashed on October 4, 2001. c/n 0499 and c/n 0698 were also accident write-offs.
