This Wirraway was the 8th off the production line in 1939 and is the oldest surviving example of the type. Remarkably, it served with the RAAF until 1960 when it was sold back to the Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation as a source of spares for the Ceres program. However, it was not used and was sold in 1963 to John Hopton, one of the original members of the Australian Aircraft Restoration Group that operated the Moorabbin Air Museum. The aircraft was restored to original 'as delivered' ground-running condition in 2015-16.

This Nomad was registered VH-SFR on 11 October 1979 and converted to an N22S Searchmaster in 1980. It was used, among other things, as a GAF demonstrator in the USA before being de-modified in 1989. It was then acquired by the RAAF and serialled A18-316. The aircraft served with ARDU until 1991 when it was withdrawn. Acquired by the Moorabbin Air Museum in 2016.
