Ex RNZAF NZ5911, ZK-EPG seen here a few months after it was ferried into Ardmore by Dwen Airmotive. The plan was to resell it and seven other Bristols. Some were flown out to new owners but not -EPG, which lingered at Ardmore until acquired by the Bristol Museum, Filton, in 2017. It will be dismantled and shipped back to the UK. Peter Ricketts photo

Ex RAAF, VH-SJG was among a collection of aircraft purchased by Jetair. Jetair never really got going before it failed. Most of its fleet was acquired by the government and exported as aid. But -SJG remained and flew on until 1978 carrying cargo over Bass Strait. It ran out of flying hours and was bought by aircraft collector Malcolm Long. In 1988 he donated it the RAAF Museum at Point Cook where it is displayed in its original markings as A81-1.
