Yes VH-FKG at TCA. Purchased secondhand from France this a/c needed lots of work before it entered service with Ansett. The a/c spent more than 3 months in the MEL workshops. During a test flight at MEL the a/c attempted to roll on its back. After being withdrawn from Ansett service in 1989 the a/c was sold and operated by Horizon Airlines in the US for a further 8 years before being retired and scrapped.
