Owner Sobelair's titles had been replaced by parent company and national airline Sabena's for the royal tour that also took in Thailand and New Zealand.

VH-RRA was withdrawn from use in 1978 and stripped of useful parts. Despite having relatively few hours, the number of holes drilled in the fuselage and wings for experiments made it unsuitable for commercial use. The hull was used by the Sydney airport fire service until 1988 when it was scrapped completely.
