No less than three out of four Herons operated by the Sri Lanka Air Force (SLAF) can be found in the excellent museum in Colombo-Ratmalana and the fourth one survives in Malaysia. CR804 is a complete example re-engined by Riley with Lycoming IO-540 flat-six piston engines. It was first reported with the museum in March 1993.
