The aircraft type was known as an Argonaut by BOAC and they were named after characters from the story. This was probably taken at Sharjah or Bahrain. Became VP-KOJ in August 1957

The North Star was a Canadian development of the Douglas C-54/DC-4, with some features of the DC-6. This airframe was manufactured in 1948 by Canadair Limited in Montreal, Quebec and was delivered to the RCAF in March of that year. It spent its entire career with No. 426 Squadron. It is the only surviving North Star. The plane is still undergoing renovation, but so far it doesn't look any better than in previous photos.

RRAF182 was delivered to the Royal Rhodesian Air Force's 3 Sqd in March 1960. The RRAF was the air force of the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland (today's Malawi, Zambia and Zimbabwe). The Canadairs, as they were known locally, formed part or the Federation's commitment to the British forces in the Middle East. When the Federation was dissolved in 1963, the three Argonauts were sold to civilian operators. RRAF182 returned to the UK as G-ALHI with Air Links. Photographer unknown

G-ALHI is here seen being finalized for delivery to the Royal Rhodesian Air Force's 3 Sqd as RRAF182. The RRAF was the air force of the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland (today's Malawi, Zambia and Zimbabwe). The Canadairs, as they were known locally, formed part or the Federation's commitment to the British forces in the Middle East. When the Federation was dissolved in 1963, the three Argonauts were sold to civilian operators. RRAF returned to the UK as G-ALHI with Air Links. Photographer unknown
