Until 2024 this only remaining airworthy Anson was flying in New Zealand as ZK-RAA. By December 2024, the aircraft had been transported to Europe where it was registered as OO-ANS. It still carries the identity of an Anson Mk.I that was shot down over the North Sea just off the German coast on 5 September 1939. This was the first RAF combat loss in WWII. This aircraft in fact is the former MH120 which not only operated with the RAF but also with the RAAF.

At the time of the photo VH-BLS, which had operated as a freighter, had not been registered since 1949. BLS and sister ship VH-BKA did amass a debt for hangarage at Bankstown which might explain its good condition. Both Ansons were ferried to Evans Head for storage before BLS was ferried to Moorabbin for rebuilding. It emerged from that rebuild in early 1955 as a passenger aircraft fitted with the smooth engine cowlings from an Airspeed Oxford. A few months later the registration was cancelled as withdrawn from use. Debt from storage at Bankstown and Evans Head may have been a factor.

A4-28 was a pre-World War II delivery to the RAAF as a general reconnaissance aircraft. Soon after the war started, the RAAF replaced Ansons in this role with Lockheed Hudsons. A4-28 was transferred to training units where it was joined by the 1000 Ansons shipped to Australia as part of the Empire Air Training Scheme. It was scrapped after the war.

Reregistered VH-DOB in February 1961. The buyer complained that he was unaware of the impending grounding of wooden-winged Ansons. VH-DOB was left with Robby's at Parafield until it was dismantled in 1964. The fuselage was stored at a St Johns Ambulance station at Hindmarsh and the rest burnt. The fuselage was scrapped in 1967.
