First flown at Chester 10-5-68 as G-5-13 and initially delivered to Rio Tinto Zinc Corp as a Series 3B G-AWMS. Retrofitted with TFE731 engines at Chester in 1981 and sold to Pacific Coast Molybdenum being delivered to them 23-6-82 after refurbishment at AiResearch Aviation, Houston. It was presented for sale at NBAA. Note the F prefix was the HSA designation for the engine conversions for customers outside North America. In North America they were marketed by Garrett AiResearch as HS125-731. Neither designation appears in FAA certification paperwork as the work was carried out under a STC and so the aircraft retained its original designation in this case HS.125 Srs. 3A
