This is the second PL-12 to be registered VH-TRT. The first was withdrawn from use in 1986 while in the US and eventually ended up on US register. The second VH-TRT was first registered as VH-UJA in 1979 and exported to New Zealand in 1983. It returned in 1989 as VH-AVG then became VH-TRT in 2002. When seen at Temora it looked like it had just rolled out of the factory.
