VH-FIX, along with fellow Super King Airs VH-FIY and VH-FIZ, are aircraft operated by Aero Pearl on behalf of AirServices Australia on navigational aid (navaid) calibration flights around Australia and in parts of Asia.

In fact, I note that VH-FIX is returning to Australia after spending some time over the last couple of months operating in Vietnam (amongst other places).  On Wednesday 22 February, VH-FIX returned to Australia through Darwin, arriving from Bali (Denpasar).
