Owned by Tonair and fitted with a Cheetah 10 radial in 1960. There were plenty of these engines around after war surplus Airspeed Oxfords were refused approval for civil use. VH-SSX was damaged in a grass fire ignited by a car exhaust while parked in a paddock near Keith, South Australia, on April 11, 1967. Struck off register.
