The Governor-General's cipher, and the name 'Endeavour' were painted near the cockpit. The aircraft was used for long-range flights, including the Duke's tour of New Guinea, New Britain, and Bougainville Island. On 20 September 1945 and 5 October 1945 'Endeavour' was flown to Singapore to evacuate ex-POWs. On 23 January 1947, 'Endeavour' returned to England and was handed back to the Air Ministry.
