Photo Comment
Registered in New Zealand as ZK-AGO in September 1938. Impressed by the RNZAF as NZ583 a year later but was found to be unsuitable. Returned to its owner and in accordance with policy at the time, received a new registration. In August 1941 it was stored at Timaru due to World War II restrictions. ZK-AGR written off when floodwaters entered the hangar. The location of the photo is unknown but does not appear to be Timaru where it was based.
