Built in 1942 for the RAAF and allocated the serial A17-57 (not -54 as marked today). Civilianised and registered as VH-BGC on 5 November 1947, it was withdrawn from use in April 1962. Resuming its original civil registration recently post restoration. Seen here at the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's Spring Fly-in.
