1 Squadron undertook several cross-country formation flights. In December 1936 it was from its base at Laverton to Adelaide-Parafield and back via the old Mildura aerodrome. A year later they ventured all the way to Brisbane-Archerfield and this photo from the Queensland library would normally suggest these aircraft are at Archerfield. However A1-32, second in the line, had been destroyed in a fatal crash at Hamilton, Victoria, on August 31. A1-22 crashed at Point Cook on July 18, 1942.
