Photo Comment

VH-JJY sits in the pre-dawn twilight after arriving in the early hours from Brisbane and Sydney. Tragically that night, a Queen Air contracted to carry excess cargo from VH-JJY crashed claiming the life of the pilot. VH-JJY, which was owned by Ansett Transport Industries, was stored at Brisbane following the collapse of Ansett in 2001. It was ferried to the UK in 2005 and sold in Sweden as SE-DRN in 2006.
