Initial registration date was 28 March 1929 (ex NC4938). It was later acquired by New England Airway, which was incorporated on 1 January 1931, and painted in their livery. Considering the factory applied swirl pattern on aluminum areas (a la Spirit of St Louis) the photo date would be closer to early 1929. The aircraft ended up in Papua New Guinea where it was destroyed by enemy action at Wau on 21 January 1942. Photo from Robinson Family Album via Tim Martin
