Built for the Netherlands Navy in the East Indies. Shipped to Australia ahead of the Japanese advance. Taken over by the RAAF in 1942 as A50-11. Sold April 1945 & registered VH-AGD later that year. Crashed Mildura 1967 but subsequently rebuilt and registered VH-AWG(3). Seen here departing from static display at the Houdini-Centenary Air Show.
