The crest on the tail is that of the borough of Blenheim where RNZAF Woodbourne was located. These civil crests were seen on other RNZAF aircraft. Since 1989 the crest has passed to the Marlborough District council. NZ1083 is stored at Ohakea should the air force Historic Flight need it. Photo from: Des White/Air Force Museum of New Zealand
