On 13 February 1993 this Dauphin was involved in a wire strike accident while on a rescue mission near Barrington Top, New South Wales. The helicopter was damaged beyond repair and written off, it eventualy ended up at Dodson's salvage yard in Rantoul, Kanasas. At the time of the accident the helicopter was operated by Westpac Helicopters under the umbrella of Surf Life Saving Association Australia in Hunter Region of New South Wales hence the Hunter Region titles.
