This aircraft was registered new in Australia on 3 November 1965. VH-MPO crashed at Wee Waa, NSW on 14 January 1967. The wreckage was sold to Aerial Agriculture which rebuilt it and returned it to the register on 23 August 1973. It crashed again 3NM south-east of Cathkin, Vic on 20 May 1974 but was rebuilt again and re-registered on 20 October 1976. Since 1989 it has been used as a glider tug.
