24-8381 was used for a solo circumnavigation of Australia to mark the centenary of powered flight in the country. The pilot was Owen Zupp and the 7500nm flight was completed in 18 days under the name "There and Back". It raised $10,000 for the Royal Flying Doctor Service. Zupp later wrote a book titled Solo Flight about the trip. This photo is copyright © Russell Legg, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
