G-APXX was originally brought from Australia in 1962 by Keith Whyham of Air Navigation and Trading at Squires Gate. It sat in the back of the hangar there for at least 13 years. He lost interest in trying to restore it because (he said) it was difficult to find parts and the CAA equivalent at the time were making life difficult for him. Keith Whyham was killed in an accident in 2000. It seems that the aircraft has followed the name allocated to it and drifted around from place to place ever since.
