While a large part of the fuselage is from LZ844 this aircraft contains parts from a number of Mk VIII wrecks and some new build items. The R-R Merlin is from a Mosquito and the propellor blades were said to be from a Barracuda. It was damaged beyond repair in a landing accident December 1943 remaing abandoned in Papua New Guinea until 1972. It was restored to static condition over many years in the colours of 79 Sqn RAAF and was brought to the UK in 2011. Current status unknown.
