Built new 1940 w/RAF s/n T5753 and sent to RNZAF and assigned NZ660. In 1946 it was transferred to the Hawera Aero Club and registered as ZK-AIW. Later owned by several other New Zealand owners, all with NZ-AIW. Exported to the U.S. in 1969 and assigned FAA registration N7966. This a/c was mostly destroyed in a nonfatal takeoff accident at Sonoma, CA. on 29 June 1990. The FAA reg. expired in February 2018.
