Photo Comment

This short-lived Australian National Airways was formed by Charles Kingsford Smith and Charles Ulm in 1930 and ceased operations in Jun 1931. It is not related to the later larger ANA that merged with Ansett in 1957. This aircraft crashed at Alor Star, Malaya, on November 26, 1931 while on delivery to the UK.
