First flown in May 1946 and registered to GS Sale & Co when seen here at Langley in 1950. Previously registered to the Ministry of Supply and Aircraft Production and leased to BOAC/BEA between June 1946 and February 1948, she was sold to Hunting Air Travel in May 1951 and converted to a Viking 639 Mk1. She later ended her flying career with Overseas Aviation between February 1958 and May 1961 and was broken up at Gatwick in June 1962.
