The future VH-BOB after its disposal by the RAAF. The plan was for it to become VH-AGV but that did not happen and it was ferried from Sydney to Jerilderie in rural NSW in August 1964. It was reported to have made some unapproved flights but fell into disrepair. Warbird pilot Bob Eastgate acquired it in 1970 and it returned to the air in 1976.
