G-ACUX was brought to Australia for Papuan Concessions which was exploring for gold in New Guinea. The aircraft proved under powered on floats. It was put on a wheeled undercarriage but remained unsuitable. In October 1935 it became VH-UUP. Not long after it was flown to Sydney for sale. It remained in Sydney until 1974 when it was sold to the Strathallan Collection and shipped to the UK. Photo appears to be at or near the Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron at Kirribilli.
