Photo Comment

Converted to a tanker at Perth and registered VH-NEP. Not used and now stored at Cunderdin. The c/n used here is not the one shown in the register (that is 7191) nor the one on the aircraft's dataplate (7203). It is however the correct one for BuNo 145921 which is this aircraft. It is understood the original data plate had been removed while the aircraft was in storage at Davis-Monthan and a replacement was manufactured. A simple arithmetical error or typo may explain the error in the register.
