After refurbishment, the Harvard served as an advanced trainer with the Swedish Air Force from Aug 1948 till Mar 1972. It then went to a technical school as an instructional airframe. It joined TFC in 1990 and returned to the air in May 1996. The restoration shows a machine gun fitted to the starboard wing.
