Photo Comment

Used as an instructional engine test rig at 1 SoTT for many years, latterly with these non standard four bladed props. Later acquired by Skysport and registered as G-DINT in 1991. After years of storage at various locations, the aircraft was bought by the HARS collection in Australia in 2012 and is currently undergoing a long term restoration to flying condition.
