This Bf109E of unspecified sub-type was brought down during the Battle of Britain. It was shipped to Australia to assist in air crew recruitment and raise war bonds. 0750, which was built by Erla, was transported to many places in Victoria and Tasmania, suffering vandalism and damage along the way. The aircraft was scrapped after the war. This photo was issued by the RAAF as a postcard and found its way into innumerable Australian households. Photo from: State Library of Victoria

The first DC-3 in Asia. The photo source mentions 1938 but also 26 December 1936, which is plausible as KLM's first DC-3 made its first flight on the East Indies route around Christmas 1936, flown by John Scholte and Dirk Parmentier. Scholte had been training on the DC-3 in Santa Monica. The big beautiful new Douglas draw a lot of interest en route. Note that 'Maatschappy' (company) is still spelled with y rather than ij.

Most active Australian Moths were impressed into the RAAF at the start of World War II but not VH-UIF. It may have been in poor condition because its CoA lapsed in 1941 and it was kept in storage. Plans to rebuild VH-UIF postwar came to nothing and it cancelled from the register in 1947. Photo from: State Library of New South Wales

The library says the photo is at Meekatharra but the aircraft was also named Meekatharra. Was this confusion? VH-UTW did fly to Meekatharra and there is nothing about the background that would exclude Meekatharra - or just about any other port the airline served. Meekatharra has been used as the location until proven otherwise. VH-UTW was destroyed in a Japanese air attack at Broome on March 3, 1942. Photo from: State Library of New South Wales

The photo is catalogued as taken at John Wren aerodrome in the Watut River Valley. Googling the name John Wren, either as an aerodrome or a person, does not come up in the context of Papua New Guinea except with this photo. The name is not in the book Wings of Gold, which is about this period in PNG aviation. The Watut Valley was an area where gold was being sought and G-AUHJ was operated by Airgold. The Moth crashed at Bulolo, another hub of gold mining activity, on October 7, 1930 while still registered as G-AUHJ. Photo from: State Library of Victoria

VH-UJN was brought to the Northern Territory by Arnhem Land Gold Development Co before being loaned to pioneering local flying doctor Clyde Fenton. After an accident in January 1936, it was taken to Sydney for rebuilding and remained based there until impressed by the RAAF in 1940. Photo from: State Library of New South Wales

Sold in Australia as VH-BDT but after that the story came to a quick end. It flew a single freight charter to Singapore. The return flight was thwarted by overloading issues and defects. When it was finally permitted to leave, it did so empty. BDT's landing back at Sydney was its final one because owner Aircarriers had gone broke. Despite attempts to sell it, VH-BDT was scrapped in 1948. Photo from: State Library of New South Wales
