The Sunderlands design was so good that it is one of the very few pre-WWII types to remain in service with the RAF long after the end of that conflict. The type also participated in the Berlin Airlift and the Korean War with the last examples being scrapped at Seletar in 1959. After her RAF service this particular aircraft served for four years with the Aeronavale (51-56) before being donated to the Short Sunderland Trust for preservation.

Undergoing restoration in a cluttered hangar at San Juan, a few months after British millionaire Edward Hulton had purchased it from Antilles Air Boats. He would fly this Sunderland to the UK two years later, where it became G-BJHS in Sep 1981. In 1993 it went to Kermit Weeks' Fantasy of Flight Museum in Florida.

201 Squadron's Sunderland 5 is moored in the River Thames next to Tower Bridge during the 1956 Battle of Britain week. Based at RAF Pembroke Dock, the aircraft had landed lower down the river and taxied here for exhibition. 201 Squadron retired their Sunderlands in February 1957, being replaced by Shackleton MR.3s. DP198 had been built as a Mark III by Shorts Windermere factory in December 1943.
