XD653 was delivered to the RAN in 1953. In 1965 it was flown to the Navy's apprentice training school HMAS Nirimba at Schofields to be used as a training aid. It was later moved to the Naval Aviation Museum at HMAS Albatross, Nowra, New South Wales. This photo is copyright © David Carter, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
