This aircraft was originally flown in 1982 with the trade plate PH-EXS, but re-registered to Ansett as VH-FKJ at the end of that year. It entered service with Ansett Airlines of Western Australia with the name 'RMA Goldfields'. Between 1988 and 1990 it was re-registered VH-EWH for service with Ansett subsidiary East-West Airlines. It reverted to VH-FKJ in 1990 for service with Ansett W.A. Retired in 1999 and struck off in 2001. In 2002 stripped of useful components & from then on used by Melbourne Airport for airport emergency exercises with the fake registration VH-SRX (SAREX).
