This was one of the replacement Trackers acquired by the RAN after the disastrous 1976 Nowra hangar fire. It is ex-USN Bu 153567 and retained that as the basis of its RAN serial.

In November 2013 it was acquired by the Vietnam Veterans Museum at Phillip Island, Vic.

Most of the 35 Turbo Firecats were converted by Conair from ex-RCN Trackers, but this one was originally USN S-2A (S2F-1) Bu 136712. Registered C-GYQY by Conair as a Firecat (previously used on a Bristol Freighter) and delivered to the French Protection Civile at Marseille as F-WEOL. Returned for conversion to Turbo in 1993. Named "Miss T11"

Originally US Navy 136510, this Tracker was obtained by Conair for Firecat conversion.

Later re-registered F-ZBFO, it was lost August 25, 1996 fighting a fire in Corsica. An Air Canada 787 now uses this registration.
