This aircraft is not what it seems! It is an impostor, painted to resemble the original VH-TQN. This one was manufactured in 1985 and registered, in turn, PH-EXW (a trade plate), N244MA, PH-RFG, VT-NEH then ZK-POH. It was one of two Friendships acquired by the Historical Aircraft Restoration Society from New Zealand in 2017 and intended to be maintained in flying condition. Registered VH-TQN(3) on 18 January 2018.

On 30 January 1970, the two ex-TAA Viscounts at Southend, VH-TVD & VH-TVF, were moved from the centre of the airfield to a site on the North side of the airfield (as depicted above), where they were completely stripped of all useful spares prior to scrapping. The latter task had commenced by 7 February 1970, both fuselages having been severed aft of the wing trailing edge. By 15 February the two aircraft had been reduced to a fast-diminishing heap of scrap, which had completely disappeared by 21 February 1970.
