A65-124 was the last Dakota delivered to the RAAF. It has been preserved at the Air Force Association Museum, Bull Creek, Western Australia.

A65-117 was sold to Calgair as N16894 in April 1968 then on-sold to Indonesia as PK-JDA. It had been with the RAAF since June 1945.

The Ansett sticker on A65-114 was in connection the airline's sponsorship of a flight marking a 50th anniversary. What that event was is not known. In October 1986 the Dakota suffered a double engine failure on takeoff at RAAF Edinburgh and was damaged during the subsequent forced landing. Now on display at the South Australian Aviation Museum.

A65-102 was the largest entrant in the Benson and Hedges trans-Australian air race. The RAAF disposed off it in 1980. It was ferried around the country to different locations but it would be 1990 before it was formally registered, as N65388. In 1995 it became VH-SPY and then returned to its US identity in 1999. Severe corrosion was found during an inspection at Cairns in 2001, and it was permanently grounded.

A65-94 was at one stage earmarked to be a target for cluster bombs. But that plan was dropped and it flew on with the RAAF for several more years. The Historical Aircraft Restoration Society at Wollongong bought it in 2000 and now operate it as VH-EAF.

A65-91 served with the RAAF from 1945 to 1986. It was sold on the civil market and became VH-TMQ.

Unit: 34 Sqn. The Rolls Royce and police escort departing behind A65-90 showed it was carrying a very important person, which was Canberra-based 34 Squadron's role. A kid in the middle of the apron with a camera was no cause for concern in the relaxed atmosphere of Australia in 1966. A month later the aircraft was retired from VIP duties and later transferred to the Navy as N2-90, eventually becoming VH-NVZ in its historic flight. It was scrapped in 2014.

A65-86 was with the Aircraft Research and Development Unit based at Edinburgh air base at the time of the photo. It joined the Australian Fleet Air Arm historic flight as VH-NVD.

A65-78 was with the RAAF from 1945 until 1997. In 1999 it was flown to the RAAF Museum at Point Cook. At the time of the photo it was being used to develop camouflage for RAAF P-3 Orions.

A65-65 served with the RAAF from 1944 to 1980. It went to the Papua New Guinea Defence Force in 1981 as P2-006. At the time of the photo, A65-65 was with the Aircraft Research and Development Unit based in Darwin.

N2-90 taxies for takeoff with only part of its serial applied and no code number. It would later be coded '802' and go on to fly as VH-NVZ with the Navy's historic flight.

Operated by Central Flying School, East Sale. Transferred to the PNGDF as P2-005 in 1981.
