VH-MMB was delivered to MMA in 1947 ex RAAF and flew with the airline until its CoA expired in March 1959. By then it was operating scheduled services from Perth to Rottnest Island a short distance off the coast and for charter and aerial survey work. Despite being assessed to be in good condition, it soon had its wings sawn off. It was removed from the register in March 1960.
