G-AFTH during basic trainer trials soon after the A&AEE had moved from Martlesham Heath. The DH-94 was not adopted by the RAF. Instead the jigs and tools and all unfinished airframes and components were shipped to Australia where production continued. About 40 aircraft came off the Australian line but only four of them were entirely Australian. The RAAF, in common with the RAF, preferred the DH82 Tiger Moth and its DH-94s were mainly used as squadron hacks. G-AFTH meanwhile was impressed into the RAF as HM585 and did not survive the war.
