Masling Airlines was based in Cootamundra, which was one of the towns to lose air services after the withdrawal of DC-3s from regional routes. Third-level airlines such as Masling filled the void. It ceased operations in 1983 and Cootamundra no longer has scheduled air services.

The Masling base at Cootamundra around the time the company was expanding into third-level airline services. It was a Cessna agent at a time when Cessnas and Pipers were sold like cars with dealerships in many large towns.

VH-BQI was one of three Sea Otters to serve with the Australian navy from 1948 to 1953. A few months after being civil registered in December 1954 it struck a submerged tree stump at RAAF Rathmines. Despite being holed, it reached the flying boat ramp safely. There it sat for many years until relocated to a rural property at nearby Awaba where it slowly fell apart. The weathering exposed its former military marks. The cockpit and nose now preserved at the Fleet Arm Museum, Nowra.
