This 1959 short-wing Piper was built as a Caribbean but has obviously been converted at some stage to Pacer standard. It was originally registered as N9826D until, briefly, being exported to the UK. It was registered G-BUBZ on 10 April 1992 but a little over a year later exported to Australia and de-registered on 18 June 1993. It must have undergone a restoration as it was not registered in Australia as VH-BRG(3) until 20 June 2002.

This aircraft was initially allocated the US registration N2861P but probably never wore it as it was imported new for the Lutheran Mission, Madang, and registered VH-BUX on 10 October 1955 (New Guinea was then an Australian territory). It was later operated by the Missionary Aviation Fellowship (MAF) and is today based at Riddell's Creek, Victoria. It's seen here at the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's National Fly-in where it won 'Best Classic'.
