This HS-748 was flown by Channel Airways for just under 2 years after delivery in February 1966. Sold to Midwest Aviation as CF-MAL in December 1967, it's pictured returning from a lease to Aviateca Guatamala as TG-MAL. It was already sold to Air Ceylon and departed on delivery via Gatwick on April 29, 1975. Registered 4R-ACR with the airline, it was subsequently sold to the Air Force as CR-831 in September 1979. Stored by March 1994, the aircraft has been displayed at the Sri Lanka Air Force Museum at Ratmalana from November 2009.
