VH-CDZ was grounded after a minor landing accident at Bankstown in 1957. For several years it was stored outside or in Marshall's second hangar (on right) until the hangar was swapped for one at Camden airport . It was then towed to Camden and later to an off-airport site. Sold in 1972, it returned to Bankstown for intended export to the US but this was blocked. A subsequent attempt to restore CDZ to airworthy in Australia abandoned after it suffered structural damage . Photo by the late Bob Kensett.
