VH-WEJ had its Cirrus engines replaced by Lycoming O-290s in 1956. Its flying career in Australia ended when aircraft constructed with synthetic resin glues were grounded in 1963. By that time it had been reregistered twice. VH-BOB, as it had become, was trucked about museums until sold in the UK where it is to be restored as G-AKHU.
