This aircraft was exported to New Zealand and registered as ZK-AUO in 1950. Prior to export it was modified to J1/B specification and fitted with a Gypsy Major engine. At some unknown stage, a 2 person bench seat was fitted in the rear to make it a 4 person aircraft. However when it came onto the NZ register it was registered as a J1/B.
It is still in NZ but not currently airworthy.
