It will be great to see this lovely old machine when it is restored to a suitable livery. It was first delivered to the R Malaysian AF in 1962 as FM1066 and was imported to Australia in 1972 by Aerial Agriculture of Bankstown with the intention of conversion to a sprayer. Instead stored with registration VH-EVB but flying again on joy rides around 1987 before passing through several more owners. Registered with the third use of VH-SYS in 2017, it ferried Wedderburn-Albion Park in July 2022 and is now the only flyable Twin Pin in the world.
