This was the 495th Friendship, ordered originally for Libya. Registered to Fokker in 1980 as PH-EXM, then PH-FTX. Sold in the USA and re-registered N334MV, then N272SA in 1986. It was sold back to Fokker in 1987 and became PH-FTX again. It then went through several hands as CN-CDC, PH-FTX again, TR-LCQ, F-SEBJ, HB-ILJ and ZK-PAX. In 2018 it was acquired by HARS and flown from Auckland to Wollongong where it is currently engineless, becoming VH-EWH(6) on 18 January 2018. It is the fourth Fokker and second F.27 to wear this registration!

It later moved overseas, becoming in turn CP-2237, YV-914C, CP-2237, ZS-OTE, ZS-BRV and ZS-ARV. Purchased from South Africa by HARS, it flew to Australia and became VH-TAA(5) on 14 November 2016. Currently airworthy but non-flying with HARS.
