Ex T6709. Registered 9 September 1953. Operated by Airspray (Colchester) Ltd and crashed while crop-spraying at South Fambridge 15 March 1963. Cancelled 21 April 1963 as PWFU. For the crop-spraying operation it used the field where there had been Pemberton airfield in 1909. The engine misfired and lost power on take-off, and it had to make an emergency crosswind landing when it cartwheeled and was destroyed. The pilot survived the accident.
