Butler's three Ambassadors did not survive the takeover by Ansett and VH-BUK returned to the UK as G-AMAE. It saw just eight months of service, a part of which was spent being repaired after it sank back into the runway at Canberra, gear up, during crew training on March 1, 1958.

The last surviving Ambassador is really starting to look superb after her recent repaint and refurbishment. This arframe was delivered to BEA in 1952 and sold to the Jordanian AF eight years later. In 1963 she was acquired by Dan-Air and donated to the Duxford Aviation Society in 1986.

This aircraft, delivered as BEA's fourth 'Elizabethan' in 12.51, was the penultimate survivor of the type until being broken up soon after this photo. Acquired by Decca Navigator in 11.63 after serving the King of Morocco as CN-MAK, she was sold to South Seas Airways in 11.71 to be ZK-DFC but this was not taken up and there she remained till the scrap man arrived
