                                    J.A.P. J.99 engine, versus the Aeronca E-113A power-plant normally fitted to American examples.

                                    withdrawn from use during the war, and then sold in Fiji in 1949, becoming VQ-FAJ.     As late as
                                    1997 it was reputed to be reposing in a garage in New Zealand.
