Here's a shot of my FS9 Westland Widgeon build taken in FSX on its first trial in that sim.

Only the exterior parts have been built so far - now to build the V.C.

There were a few Australian ones including the infamous G-AUKA in which Messrs Anderson & Hitchcock perished when stranded in the desert whilst searching for Kingsford-Smith. VH-UHU was repainted as G-AUKA for a film at one stage - both regs show in the video.
I have added to my education when I read that G-AU was the original prefix for Australian aircraft later changing to VH-.Here the prefix was originally G-E (as my model here.).
