XE489 repainted as "XE364" on display at the Historic Aircraft Museum. The museum closed in May 1983 and the contents auctioned, XE489 fetching £6500. Became G-JETH. The wing spar attachments were found to be cut through so FB.3 WM983 was acquired and became G-JETH instead. XE489 with the wings of WM983 (in themselves from WV909!) was sold in the Netherlands. The aircraft marked as "XE489" at Charlwood is G-JETH with the fuselage of WM983 and just the wings from the original XE489.
