seen in use for spares for the Royal Navy... Not quite true, these airframes were purchases by the RAN to provide sapares for their fleet. They were to be broken down at Sultan and parts shipped to Australia, unfortunately the RAN did not get what they thought they were paying for. End result, several bare airfames at sultan and lots of useless bits in Australia.
