Struck off the register in 1953 after being damaged in a cyclone at Winning Pool Station, Western Australia, on March 22 that year. Remains rediscovered in 1981. Returned to the register in 1996, took a further 23 years to be fully restored. Markings are those it wore in April 1931 when C.W.A Scott broke the UK-Australia solo record.
