This 1985-production Metro was delivered to Wings West as N26838 in April 1986. In 1988 it was re-registered as N350AE, and in 1993 was placed in storage. Sold in Australia, it was re-registered VH-SSV to Newcastle Aviation on 27 September 1993. From the following year it was operated by Pel-Air Express, with a brief lease to Qwestair. In 2000 it was briefly re-registered VH-EER before returning to VH-SSV. In July 2001 it was re-registered again as VH-EEJ. Seen here awaiting disposal.
