Photo Comment

Delivered to the USAAF as 44-76361 then to the RNZAF as NZ3534 in 1945. Sold as ZK-APB in 1947. Withdrawn from use in 1983. The nose was mounted on the front of the Aerodrome pub near Wellington Airport and a fuselage section was inside. The pub is no longer there and the nose section went to Masterton.
