The real G-AGIH was a Norwegian Lend-Lease aircraft, operated by BOAC. On 29 August 1944 the aircraft crashed into hilly terrain in bad weather, while en-route from Stockholm-Bromma, Sweden to RAF Leuchars in Scotland. Three crew and 12 passengers were on board, all Norwegian. Four passengers survived. This aircraft at the museum is in fact ex N283M/OH-SIR, which was falsely painted to represent that very Lodestar.

This 1A was originally ordered as one of two for Canadian Pacific and first flew in August 1952 as CF-CUM. The fatal loss of its sister ship at Karachi on its delivery flight in March 1953 meant that CPA cancelled the contract and CF-CUM went instead to BOAC as G-ANAV, being their only 1A but was also being operated by SAA. Following the Comet accidents, G-ANAV was used for testing at Farnborough as part of the investigation and then scrapped, The nose was saved by the Science Museum and later placed in storage at Wroughton. It has been recently donated to the DH museum.
