VH-UVQ on the Cooks River mudflats next to the airport. A few days later it was flown to Brisbane where it operated for a short while from the Brisbane River. By the end of 1939 it was stored, vandalised and caught up in the liquidation of Aerial Transport and Training. -UVQ never flew again and was cancelled from the register in 1946.
