Previously owned by a number of other civilian operators (during which it carried serial WZ838 at one time for trooping flights), it was acquired by its last operator, Air Links, on 24 October 1962. It was eventually the last Hermes 4 in service and made its final flight on 22 December 1964, when it positioned from Gatwick to Southend, where it was parked until scrapped in March 1965. It was cancelled 9 August 1965 as PWFU. Parked ahead of it in this photo are engineless Vikings G-AJFR & G-APOO, also awaiting scrapping.
