Delivered to the AAC in 1961 and served in the Far East, initially based at Seletar and later in Borneo, where in January 1966 it inverted on landing, caused by passenger having their feet on the toe brakes. Recovered by a Wessex helicopter. Loaned to Foreign & Commonwealth Office at Vientiane in 1975 in this white scheme to show neutrality in the war then raging in Laos. This however did not save it from coming under fire while flying up the Mekong River when a Russian-made RPG-7 missile passed through the port wing, just missing a fuel line. To museum in 1985.
