In 1960 this Heron was one of those imported to Japan from the large Garuda Indonesia fleet (delivered new in 1954 as PK-GHK). Some were converted by Shin Meiwa with Continental engines, but JA6159 retained the Gypsy Queens and operated for Toa Airlines and then Japan Domestic Airlines after merger in 1964. After use as a ground instructional airframe at Hiroshima, it was placed on display at the Kaizuka Transport Park north of Fukuoka airport in 1968 and remains there along with some railway locomotives

The first of two US-1A Kai prototypes, the advanced version of the famous flying boat by ShinMaywa. 'Peacock 901' was carrying out test flights for the Technical Research and Development Institute of the Japan Defence Agency. Afterwards, the US-1A Kai was redesignated US-2, making this preproduction ship an XUS-2. At the time of photographing it clearly still displayed its original designation. Shin Meiwa was renamed to ShinMaywa in 1992. [Nikon F100, Fuji Provia 100F]
