After military service, this Albatros initially went to South Africa where it was registered in the experimental block as ZU-BZA in October 1999. In 2002 it came to Australia, initially being based in Perth, and was re-registered VH-LQT on 2 August that year. Early the following year, on 2 January 2003, it was re-registered VH-HOT. This lasted until 12 June 2007 when it was re-registered again as VH-IOT(3). Seen here at Wings Over the Illawarra 2022.
