G-AUBG prior to receiving its registration. It remained with QANTAS until November 1926 when it was sold. Became VH-UBG when Australia adopted that prefix in 1929 and was struck off the register in April 1932 after the CoA expired. The engine is a Sunbeam Dyak. RAAF 504K A3-4 was lent to Qantas in 1965, fitted with a Dyak and painted to represent G-AUBG. This aircraft was returned to the Australian War Memorial in 1987. It had been replaced by a replica of G-AUBG now displayed at the Qantas Founders Museum at Longreach. Photo from: National Library of Australia
