First delivered as long ago as July 1946 to the Iraqi Petroleum Company as G-AHRI, this early Dove was sold as 4X-ARI to Avitur Airlines in 1957, reverting to its British registration with Brooklands Aviation in 1965. Wfu in 1972, by 1978 it had been loaned to the Lincolnshire Aviation Society and put on show at Tattershall. In 1989 it moved to the Newark museum and in the last couple of years has been repainted in these Israeli marks. A 1965 photo on Wiki of 4X-ARI at Coventry shows it in a far more interesting c/s complete with large titles

For many years this Dove was preserved as G-AHRI. Recently it has been repainted as 4X-ARI. The aircraft actually wore this registration between 1965 and 1972.
