It would have been a rare event for an RAAF Convair to cross the "ditch", as the Tasman Sea is known, to New Zealand. It is more than 2000km with only one island airport in between. Almost 20 years after this photo, an engine failure on an RAAF BAC 1-11 on a Tasman flight saw then prime minister Whitlam insist on four-engine VIP aircraft for all his international travel. The RAAF acquired a fleet of used 707s, some of which were also used as tankers. The RAAF VIP fleet in 2025 is all twins. Photo from: Air Force Museum of New Zealand

This airframe was originally delivered to SABENA in October 1956 as Convair 440 OO-SCO. It served until sold to Frontier Airlines as N73163 in November 1967 and was converted to turbine power as a CV580 in March 1968. It subsequently had a number of other owners and lessees until bought by JBQ Aviation in 1995 and stored at Roswell. Its hulk was still visible at Roswell at least as late as 2019, and fragments of its skin can now be purchased online as key tags.
