This Winjeel was delivered to the RAAF in November 1957. Retired from military service, it was registered as VH-HWI(1) on 14 March 1989 and operated as a warbird. In April 2006 ownership transferred to the RAAF Museum but the aircraft was withdrawn from operational use on 9 July 2020. It seems to have been swapped with the FAA Museum for the prototype Winjeel, A85-364, which was formerly on display but has since been transferred to the RAAF Base Wagga Aviation Heritage Centre.
