ZK-CKJ was cancelled from the New Zealand register in January 1969 as sold in Australia. It was likely in Australia for conversion to a 400hp engine by Aerosmith as part of the development of new model. That project was cancelled in favour of a 400hp conversion designed by Australian agricultural operator Pay's Air Services. ZK-CKJ was restored to the New Zealand register in December 1969 without ever gracing the Australian register. It received a 400hp engine in NZ in May 1970, to become a FU-24-950M, and crashed at Rotorua in March 1973.

VH-EPZ was fitted with a 400hp Lycoming IO-720 and a larger fin by Aerosmith on behalf of Air Parts, the New Zealand manufacturer. At the same time, Col Pay, of Pay's Air Services at Scone, did his own 400hp conversion and that was adopted by Air Parts for production. As a consequence, VH-EPZ returned to New Zealand as ZK-CXW without being registered in Australia. Before it departed it was restored to its original factory specifications.
