Originally built for RAF service as WV666: Struck off charge as 7926M on 01/11/1966. Later sold to US owner as N2416R. To UK civil register as G-BTDH on 14/08/1996. Registration G-BTDH cancelled 07/02/2000 as "aircraft destroyed".
Despite this, sold to a new owner in Albany, New Zealand, and civil registered as ZK-JOT, then rebuilt/restored to airworthy condition by March 2005
