Photo Comment

VH-RMC gets the morning sun outside the Ansett-ANA hangars. The Ansett-ANA livery was based on Braniff's early 1950s colour scheme. In 1954 Ansett Airways bought an undelivered Braniff Convair 340 and merely changed the titles. It was a livery that with minor adjustments would last Ansett until 1969.
