Originally delivered to Ansett as a pax aircraft - VH-RMN - it also served with subsidiary East West Airlines and operated for a time with Polynesian Airlines in full colours and titles. After conversion to freighter it became VH-AUP before being re-registered as VH-VLF. The aircraft later became N982JM and stored and has since become HP-1653CTH - I have also seen reference to it being registered HP-1653-CTW.
