VH-ARG as it was around the time of its first flight at Cootamundra. It was later flown to Sydney and registered as VH-ARG. Stored during World War II, it was sold after the war to famed pilot fighter pilot Bobby Gibbes. The Bat remained registered until 1951. The Powerhouse Museum in Sydney has the remains.
