Delivered to the Central Flying School at Point Cook in 1918. Sold to a civilian buyer in 1919 but retained its full military markings until it entered the register as G-AUBW in June 1921. It was destroyed in a hangar fire in 1931 by which time it was registered VH-UBW. At the time of the photo C9374 was travelling with an Avro 504 giving rural Australians with their first experiences of flight such as those in the tiny community of Farrell Flat.
