Delivered 25-Mar-1946 as ZS-AUA (South African AW), to South African AF as 6901 in Jan-1966, back to ZS-AUA in 1968, back to South African AF 6901 in 1970, to ZS-NUR (Aero Air) registered Aug-1995, to PH-DDS registered Dec-1996. Due to changed regulations in the Netherlands for historic aircraft that make it almost impossible to carry fare-paying passengers, operation was no longer economically viable, and regrettably the aircraft had to be sold. So it went back to South Africa as ZS-AUA again, registered Dec-2002 ....If only a sound file could be added....
