See photo ID: 35552 for a shot of it after arrival in Australia and subsequent fate. This was a bitterly cold day and streaks made by light snow can be seen against the black hangar. (By this time I had a car so no more freezing while waiting at bus stops and railway stations. Also I had time on the same day to visit London/Gatwick plus Leavesden and Elstree aerodromes to see other air race participants.)

VH-ECF was of one of two business jets entered in the race but the only one to join the rest of the field at the finish line at Bankstown. The Canadian air force's heavier Dassault Falcon was forced to go to Sydney International because of airport restrictions at Bankstown.
