G-EAIM was cancelled from the UK register in 1919 and shipped to Australia. With no register of its own, G-EAIM continued to fly in Australia with its UK registration displayed until it was painted over with the Witch Soap promotion. G-EAIM cross paths with the BE2e C6965, which was promoting Perdiau Rubber, at the Toowoomba racecourse. The racecourse was used in the absence of an aerodrome at the town. G-EAIM crashed at Berri, South Australia, on August 19, 1920. Photo from: Powerhouse Museum
